By accident I just discovered what might be a samba bug. We have a Redhat 6.0 linux server with Samba 2.0.6 and Windows 95/98 clients. If a user has set his Windows password non-empty he is asked for password suitably to lon in to the network and gain writing privilegies on the shares on the server. As expected. If the user has set his Windows password empty, however, he is able to log in to the network and gain writing privilegies without ever having to supply the proper password for the server. If he just leaves the password field in the login dialog empty he is logged in and gains writing privilegies to his own profile share and common shares. Now, in our little "friendly" network it is not a major problem. No doubt, though, that it is not what is expected ? Huh? - Carsten
