I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this >>> and what might be done to fix it. Thanks for any input. We ran into the same problem on a test Win98 machine and Samba running on our AIX system. The problem is this: Win98 has password encryption enabled, Win95 does not (or close to that). You need to go into the registry and change the setting on "Enable Plain Text Password=" to the opposite of what ever it currently is (I think it is a 1 and should be changed to a 0). I believe that this is the solution to your problem. Eric To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
