Hi all I have a linux(susse) running samba and am trying to connect from windows98. I have no problem seeing the linux computer in the network neigbourhood. I can also see the folders shared from it. When Im accessing a folder I get prompted for password (my login on windows98 is the same as for linux). But it doesnt accept the password "Bad password". When I log in from other windows98 computers in the network I have the same problem and all other users also have it. BUT, when I log in from a NT 4 or windows95 computers I have no problem accessing the linux computer running Samba. Am I missing some settings or isnt Samba compatible with windows98?!? If somebody have had the same problem and solved it please send me the solution. /David>-------------------------------------------------------------------------<David Gunnarsson e-mail: david.gunnarsson@fy.chalmers.se Chalmers University of Technology Phone: +46 31 772 5170 Microelectronics and Nano-Science Mobil: +46 705 938 895 Applied Solid State Physics Fax: +46 31 772 3471 S-412 96 G?teborg, Sweden

This sounds like a plaintext vs encrypted password issue.> > When I log in from other windows98 computers in the network I have the same > problem and all other users also have it. > BUT, when I log in from a NT 4 or windows95 computers I have no problem > accessing the linux computer running Samba. > > Am I missing some settings or isnt Samba compatible with windows98?!? > > If somebody have had the same problem and solved it please send me the > solution. > > /David > >-------------------------------------------------------------------------< > David Gunnarsson e-mail: david.gunnarsson@fy.chalmers.se > Chalmers University of Technology Phone: +46 31 772 5170 > Microelectronics and Nano-Science Mobil: +46 705 938 895 > Applied Solid State Physics Fax: +46 31 772 3471 > S-412 96 G?teborg, Sweden-- =====================================================================Herb Lewis Silicon Graphics Networking Engineer 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy MS-510 Strategic Software Organization Mountain View, CA 94043-1351 herb@sgi.com Tel: 650-933-2177 http://www.sgi.com Fax: 650-932-2177 ======================================================================
