Guys, I'm experimenting with encrypted vs non encrypted passwords on Windows 98. Maybe I'm missing something but here's what I did set up a samba server version 2.0.7 on a solaris 7 basic config with encrypt passwords = no on the windows 98 box I've edited the registry as described in the docs/textdocs part of the source. When I try to connect using the above config I can't log on. Using snoop I can see that my password is being passed in plaintext. If I change the registry back, reboot and change encrypt passwords above to yes on the server I can log on fine. Can someone tell me what I'm missing. Thanks, PhilY
