Dear Samba-ites we have found some confusion in looking at the documentation for use of SMB passwords. We have a situation where some systems have encryption (i.e. winME) and others have none. What is not clear by experimentation data sniffing or documentation is whether Samba will deal with both cases using the same SMB.CONF file (my caps.). can you elucidate please? regards (P.S. If this information is in the Samba book, please provide reference for it as we have this. To be clear, we have looked at the FAQ, HTML docs and the book before submitting this email.)
