PDC

[David Atkinson]

Sounds like your Samba PDC is trying to use plain text passwords to which
Win98 or Win2000 will object. To set Win98 to plain text passwords find (in
regedit)

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VXD\VNETSUP]

and add a dword value of "EnablePlainTextPassword" set to 1

For NT (and Win2000, I think) it is the same as for Win95, except the value
"EnablePlainTextPassword" is stored in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rdr\Parameters]
