Samba Question

[Jeff Zidek]

I tried all of the above but nothing works.  98 uses encrypted passwords and I can access and use all the shares.  I checked the NT machine and permissions are set to full.  Netbios is not installed.  What else could it be?  I gave everyone smbpasswords and accounts.  Still baffled.  Jeff

  Just a note:  you'll likely need to use the smbpasswd utility to generate encrypted smb-usable passwords for each user accessing your Samba shares.

access any of the shares from.   Is there a setting in the smb.conf to fixthis?  I can access the NT share from other 95 and 98 machines.  Could useall ideas.
For NT and above to connect to a Samba server with user level security(security = user) enabled you need to configure Samba to use encrytedpasswords (encrypt passwords = Yes).  There are ways around it bymodifing the registry of each client machine but its not hard toconfigure Samba to except encrypted passwords.
