Re: Samba Question

[Tom Cooper <tom_cooper bigfoot com>]

I'm fairly sure that this is related to the use of encrypted passwords
by your Windows box.  The docs for the samba version you're using should
include a file *PlainPassword.reg.  Apply the appropriate one for the
windows version that you're using, and after reboting, see if that
problem persists.

Hope this helps.

Tom Cooper
