Hello everbody, I have a small problems with Samba 2.0.3/SuSE 6.1 and my Windows NT Clients: As long as I'm working with Win311/95/98 clients everything is OK, but when I try to connect with a WinNT 4.0 client, I get the following errormessage (translated from german, so the US message may sound a little different): Unable to connect to \\linux_server_01 Unable to log on with this account from this station Errorcode: 1240 - Plain Passwords are enabled in NT - Security is set to USER - no hosts allow or hosts deny One other thing: On those machines which have dual boot with DOS/Win95, I was able to connect to SAMBA after making a first connection with the old OS. Anybody got any ideas what could be the problem here ? Thanks, Marco Schwarz.

From the samba doc WinNT.txt:> The other major ramification of this feature of NT is that it can't > browse a user level non-encrypted server unless it already has a > connection open. This is because there is no spot for a password > prompt in the browser window. It works fine if you already have a > drive mounted (for example, one auto mounted on startup).Try mounting a share as a local drive (from an NT command prompt) with the Net Use command and then try browsing. And don't forget to read the docs...
