Anyone got any ideas? > The Service Pack 3 Documentation Section 3.6 reads: : Connecting to SMB servers (such as Samba and LAN Manager for UNIX) : with an unencrypted (plain text) password fails after upgrading to : Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3. This is because the SMB redirector : in Service Pack 3 handles unencrypted passwords differently than : previous versions of Windows NT. Beginning with Service Pack 3, the : SMB redirector will not send an unencrypted password unless you add : a registry entry to enable unencrypted passwords. For information : on how to modify the registry, search the Microsoft Knowledge Base : at http://www.microsoft.com/kb/ for the following article: Q166730. : This article also contains information on how to change the : Service Pack setup process so that unencrypted passwords are : enabled after the Service Pack is installed. However, Article Q166730 does NOT exist (at least I did not find it) on http://www.microsoft.com/kb/ But here is the registry entry necessary: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rdr\Parameters] "EnablePlainTextPassword"=dword:00000001 Bye Darius
