---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: [nylug-talk] plain text passwords for samba client Date: Sat, 21 Oct 2000 18:07:01 -0400 From: danny <dwheeler@suffolk.lib.ny.us> I have successfully configured samba allowing all of my windows 95 and 98 machines user level access. It was necessary to add the following registry key; HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\SERVICES\VXD\VNETSUP ""EnablePlainTextPassword"=dword:00000001". This worked fine for most of my machines but I have a couple of others I have windows me on and it does not work for them. Besides using encrypted passwords is there a workaround for this?
