	You need to do one or the other, encrypter passwords or clear passwords,
the easist is to change the win98 regisrty to plain text passwords, and
reboot. This does open a security risk if your accessing the samba server
over unsecure networks such as the internet, you should read the files on
encryption from samba for more info...

The files you need are on the win98 cd under D:\tools\mtsutil called
ptxt_off.dll and ptxt_on.dll(right click on ptxt_off and select install)
