Hi,

The rpcclient tool delivered with 2.2.0-alpha0 does not support clear-text
passwords.  I discovered this problem while checking out the imprints tool.
Following is the output of diff -u for the changes I made to add support:

diff -u lib/cmd_interp.c.new lib/cmd_interp.c.orig
<                       if (lp_encrypted_passwords())
<                               pwd_make_lm_nt_16(&(u->pwd), password);
<                       else
<                               pwd_set_cleartext(&(u->pwd), password);
< 
---
>                       pwd_make_lm_nt_16(&(u->pwd), password);
666c662
<               pwd_read(&(u->pwd), "Enter Password:",
lp_encrypted_passwords());
---
>               pwd_read(&(u->pwd), "Enter Password:", True);
