Different encrypted samba passwords than Unix passwords...

[Brian Macy]

I may be reading this wrong, but I'm trying to figure out why samba is
sometimes trying to do a Unix password lookup to authenticate a samba
connect. I have my samba passwords different than my Unix passwords. I'm
using my own compiled version of Samba 1.9.18p10.

I have an NT4 SP3 box and when I try to access a share through explorer on
either of my two Linux boxes with encrypted passwords it fails. It appears
that if I enter the correct samba password it tries to authenticate the Unix
password. The odd thing is if I delete the shares on the NT box and then
re-add them (using "net use") it works fine again... I think until the next
reboot -- at least it never works after a reboot.

These are the shares I'm trying to access:
[public]
   comment = Public Stuff
   path = /usr/local/share/public
   public = no
   writable = yes
   printable = no
   force user = samba
   force group = samba

[users]
   comment = Users
   path = /home
   public = no
   writable = yes
   printable = no

Here are the logs:
