[Samba] Question

By default Samba v. 2.x (since the version was not mentioned, I'm assuming
the post refers to a recent stable version) uses un-encrypted passwords.
Windows 2K, on the other hand, will not send unencrypted passwords over
the network without a registry hack.

Instructions on setting up encrypted passwords in Samba can be found in
one of the docs (I believe named ENCRYPTION).  There are also some
instructions on changing Windows behaviour to enable plain text passwords.

Can you send a copy of your smb.conf file??  I had this same problem
when I set up my Win2K machine, and Samba.

It will give others an idea on what you have done to this point.
