I've been reading over the 1.9.18 docs and I'm very pleased to see the NT logon stuff coming together. Way to go, Samba Team! My question is this, though: Do I have to have encrypted passwords configured on a Samba server to allow logons from an NT server or client? Can I simply apply the supplied NT4_PlainPassword.reg to the NT machine and authenticate users against the Samba server without using encryption? Seems a waste of time to me to go through all the hassle of trying to support encryption when we have users using telnet, ftp, pop, etc. anyways... -- Rob Naccarato "I know I'm a lot of feathers, Sys Admin but not much chicken."
