Jason,
I'm assuming that you're trying to connect to your Samba server via WIN
NT? If so, you need to go into the registry and add a key that enables
plaintext passwords. You can find information on how to do this in
/usr/local/share/doc/samba.
Also, the easiest way I've found to configure Samba, is by using SWAT.
It's included when you install Samba. Take a look at
/usr/local/share/doc/samba/README.swat It will tell you how to use SWAT.
Cheers
Joe
