Hello I cannot get my Windows98 machines to connect to my Samba server(2.2.4) shares. It appears that my Win machines are not transmitting the password. The Samba server looks OK. On the server machine, "smbclient -L <server> -U user1" prompts me for a passwd, then, after authentication, displays the shares. When I attempt to map a share from my Win machines, the samba log file shows ... smbd/reply.c:reply_sesssetup_and_X(973) Defaulting to Lanman password for user1 smbd/password.c:password_ok(593) Null passwords not allowed. smbd/reply.c:reply_sesssetup_and_X(989) Rejecting user 'user1': authentication failed smbd/error.c:error_packet(91) error string = No such file or directory ... I verified the null passwd being sent from the Win machines by turning on the sniffer(ethereal) on the samba server and looking at the packets coming through. In packets labeled by the sniffer "Session Setup AndX Request", I can see the account name, and primary domain name, but when it comes to the password, the length is set to '1' and the password is set to '00'. I am using the same login and passwords for both my Linux and Win98 machines. No encrypted passwords on any machine. Both Win98 and server security are set to 'user'. What am I missing? I would appreciate any info or insight as to what will help me solve my problem. CJ Ferguson fergsffd@yahoo.com
