Re: Re-enabling plain test passwords on NT

[arbu <arbu cwcom net>]

It's in the HOWTO, there is a whole section on the hacks. Had similar problems
with w98, because of smb, but this itself is ironic
as samba was shall we say used by a certain organisation as the basis
for smb and a chunck of windows
for workgroups networking.

I'm trying to connect my NT4 (SP6) box to Linux box using Samba. I can see
the Linux box in the Network Neighbourhood but when I try and connect it
won't validate any of the usernames or passwords. I've set Samba to accept
encrypted passwords but it doesn't work. So I wondered if anyone knows the
registry hack for NT to re-enable plain test passwords.

Thanks
