Synchronizing passwords

[Rashkae]

As a follow up this this thread, Myself and Kmudcat have continued a few
exhanges off list.

It turns out that he has Security = DOMAIN and is authentication users
via a Windows NT PDC....

The original problem was that Win 2K clients request a password every time
a connection to a Samba share is made.

I am not familiar enough with this scenario to know what is causing this,
or the appropriate solution. It would appear that since Encryption = Yes
was put in, nobody can connect to Samba Shares. I will let KmudCat fill in
any details I have wrong.

So much so that in Samba 3.0, this will be the default.
