RE: [aclug-L] Samba Question

It might also be that NT is checking first for NT Challenge/Response
Password (encrypted) and then Password as Clear Text.

This would explain why it barfs on the first try and passes on the second.

Well its been a couple of weeks but I'll see what I can do.

Later 95, NT, and 98 boxen all have encrypted passwords added. 

one possible problem is your smb.conf might not be set for that, 

see if  
encrypt passwords = yes
is in there. 

by default this will probably use /etc/smbpasswd 

you may have to create it if it doesn't exist by :

mksmbpasswd  cat  /etc/passwd  |  /usr/sbin/mksmbpasswd  > /etc/smbpasswd

then run smbpasswd to add password for users.

This is what I had to do, but you problem
