Laine,

	Microsoft have made the same change to Windows98
with respect to clear text passwords as they did to Windows NT
4.0 SP3. You will need to change the registry setting to
re-enable clear text passwords, or setup encrypted passwords
with Samba.

To get the cleartext password registry information, check
the URL :

ftp://samba.anu.edu.au/pub/samba/docs/NT4_PlainPassword.reg

This is the registry change that needs to be made in NT4.0
SP3 but I believe the same change may work on Windows 98.

For information on setting up encrypted passwords with
Samba, see the URL:

ftp://samba.anu.edu.au/pub/samba/docs/ENCRYPTION.txt

Hope this helps,

	Jeremy Allison,
	Samba Team.
