you need to use smbpasswd, specifically: smbpasswd -a username also make sure you have "security = user" and "encrypt passwords = yes" in your smb.conf. do a "man smb.conf" for further help. Also, please don't post in html. :) Hope that helps. mike wrote: > First off I would just like to say you guys ROCK !!!!! I really > apprecaite the help.
