Access problem

[Arnick Hahn]

Hello. I'm the one who posted about getting an error message "That account
is not authorized to login from this station."

Solution is found in WinNT.txt:

**
All versions of Windows NT prior to 4.0 Service Pack 3 could negotiate
plain text (clear text) passwords. Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 changed
this default behaviour so it now will only handle encrypted passwords.
The following registry entry change will re-enable clear text password
handling:

Run regedt32.exe and locate the hive key entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rdr\Parameters\

Add the following value:
        EnablePlainTextPassword:REG_DWORD=1
**

For Win95, read Win95.txt.

Happy "Samba"ing!

Hi,
I have been having the exact same problem with my server I have been trying
to setup, with the exception that I am in a 98/NT enviornment and I get the
same error message on everybody's Windows-Based machine, except that NT will
ask me for both a username and password, and 98 just asks me for a password.
I have also included my smb.conf file if this helps.
Thanks for your help in advance,
Ben
