question about passwords when logging in

Hello Fellow SambaUsers,
Just wondering if anyone can help me w/ a question about logging in and
password protection. Using Win-NT 4.0 and Win 98, I'm unable to set
passwords for a particular samba server (on unix solaris). The only way
I can get it to work is if I make the server wide-open for everyone
where it does NOT prompt for a password.
Here's the [global] section of my config file:
[global]
workgroup = FAST
browseable = yes
log file = /usr/local/samba/log/log.%m
lock directory = /usr/local/samba/var/locks
share modes = yes
encrypt passwords = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
share modes = yes
keep alive = 30
guest account = nobody
networkstation user login = no
dns proxy = 150.233.158.161
I'm not sure what to put in this file to get it to prompt the users for
their passwords before logging into the samba server. Also, I do not
understand the authentication process:
* Does it want the unix password?
* Does it want the NT password? If so, do I need to add stuff to the
config file regarding the domain controller?
* Do the unix machine and NT machines have to have the same uid and
password for each user I want this to work for?
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much
people!!!
