With win98, you are better off with the latest release and better off using
"smbpasswd".
I don't think the registry hack for win98 is common knowledge as yet.
So, I let samba support encrupted passwords (which means you need to
use smbpassword).   There is tons of documentation on that with the
distribution.

Its quite straightforward and it took me an hour to get the setup going.
