I've looked for the answer for this question and it appears that it should work as I want. I am just at a loss as to why and hoping someone can point to something useful.. Question: In W2K, I am mapping a drive of a Samba Resource. However, when I reboot the W2K box, I am prompted for a password for the resource. Can W2K remember the password for me? [global] encrypt passwords = Yes password server = 10.1.1.100 10.1.1.101 workgroup = ThisWG security = DOMAIN update encrypted = No allow trusted domains = Yes protocol = NT1 [ThisShare] path = /home/samba/share_home valid users = spencer force user = pcguest force group = pcguest read only = No From what I read, W2K should remember an encrypted password....
