FWIW - the option -o guest works for Linux/Raspberry pi SMB mount

The format of the USB drive might be important the Hub One only supported FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS

Actually, I've found that it does NOT support NTFS. When I format my USB drive as NTFS, then the Hub2 fails any access attempts. When I format the same USB drive FAT32 then the access works.... Hmmm... seems I'm limited to <2Gb file sizes then, which is OK as I just store old photos anyway.

Thats nice to know for others who might wish to do share a USB drive. 2Gb file limit is a feature of FAT32.

Meanwhile, in Windows...

With a USB Memory stick plugged in to the Hub Two, looking at the Windows Command Prompt:

> net view hub
Shared resources at hub
Plusnet Hub Two File Server
Share name  Type  Used as  Comment
------------------------------------------
usb1        Disk           created by auto-share

So it is definitely there and ready to share, just need to sort it all out in Windows!
