> Thanks, Deyan. Added that tweak; no doubt it's part of the puzzle. I also remembered the old registry hack with old Samba versions, and found this PC had the reg flag set to use plain-text passwords; undid that one, but still no go. Any other
suggestions? [other than scrap the old clunker? ;) ]
OS/2 requires also:
client lanman auth = Yes
client plaintext auth = Yes
Probably W9x is the same.
