Hi. Have FreeBSD and Samba 2.05a with lots of Win95 rev 2 clients. With the EnablePlainTextPassword=1 registry setting on the Win95 boxes I my students have been logging in fine. We now have a few Win98 boxes I'd like to connect, but I can't log in - I get refused at the IPC$ share. I can log in if I use rhosts, however I don't want to do this for security reasons. The key is in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ System\ CurrentControlSet\ Services\ VxD\ VNETSUP\ It's a DWORD value EnablePlainTextPassword=1 Any hints? Both new machines are Win98 rev 1 and I can't say I'm too impressed with this OS. Eddie.
