My searching skills seem to be rusty. Question: How do I get my new Win XP box to talk to me FreeBSD Server? When I try to map a drive I get : "The account is not authorized to log in from this station." What I think the answer is: I think it's the "Plain Text Password" issue. I've dealt with it before on Win 98 but can't figure out how to configure Win XP to allow a Plain Text Password. I've been searching for a few hours as I know it must be a common issue and the answer is there somewhere. If you can point me in the right direction it would be a great help. Thanks. Nigel Holloway
