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
