I think that Win98 passes passwords encrypted by default and your version of
samba did not provide encrypted password passing by default. You can get
a newer version of samba that passes password encrypted by default, or
set Win98 to pass passwords plain-text. I think this done the same way it
is done the updated versions of Win95. There is a text file on the samba
site explaining how to do this.
