For the reason why this is happening, read the files named ENCRYPTION.txt and Win95.txt in the docs/ subdirectory of the Samba distribution. Specifically, read the section on "Password Handling" in Win95.txt. If you add the given key to your Win98 registry, it too should be able to access shares on a Samba server with unencrypted passwords. -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
