Hi all, I am sharing a directory by using SAMBA Ver. 2.2.3a on a HP-UX 11.11 for MS XP-Clients. Allthough conntecting works fine, I get the follwing log entry everytime a client connects: [2003/12/30 10:11:02, 0] smbd/chgpasswd.c:(939) check_plaintext_password: getsmbpwnam returned NULL smb.conf looks as follows: # Global parameters [global] coding system = client code page = 850 code page directory = /etc/opt/samba/codepages workgroup = WORK netbios name = SVXYZ.INTRANET.LAN.CH netbios aliases = netbios scope = server string = %h interfaces = bind interfaces only = No security = SHARE encrypt passwords = No update encrypted = No allow trusted domains = Yes hosts equiv = min passwd length = 5 map to guest = Never null passwords = No obey pam restrictions = No password server = smb passwd file = /etc/opt/samba/smbpasswd root directory = / pam password change = No passwd program = /bin/passwd passwd chat = *new*password* %n\n *new*password* %n\n *changed* passwd chat debug = Yes username map = /etc/opt/samba/username.map password level = 0 username level = 0 unix password sync = No restrict anonymous = No lanman auth = Yes use rhosts = No log level = 0 syslog = 1 syslog only = No log file = /var/adm/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 timestamp logs = Yes debug hires timestamp = No debug pid = No debug uid = No protocol = NT1 large readwrite = No max protocol = NT1 min protocol = CORE read bmpx = No read raw = Yes write raw = Yes nt smb support = Yes nt pipe support = Yes announce version = 4.5 announce as = NT max mux = 50 max xmit = 65535 name resolve order = host bcast max packet = 65535 max ttl = 259200 max wins ttl = 518400 min wins ttl = 21600 time server = No unix extensions = Yes change notify timeout = 60 deadtime = 0 getwd cache = Yes keepalive = 300 lpq cache time = 10 max smbd processes = 0 max disk size = 0 max open files = 10000 read size = 16384 socket options = stat cache size = 50 use mmap = No total print jobs = 0 load printers = No printcap name = lpstat disable spoolss = No enumports command = addprinter command = deleteprinter command = show add printer wizard = No os2 driver map = strip dot = No character set = mangled stack = 50 stat cache = Yes domain admin group = domain guest group = groupname map = /etc/opt/samba/groupname.map machine password timeout = 604800 add user script = delete user script = logon script = logon path = \\%N\%U\profile logon drive = logon home = \\%N\%U domain logons = No os level = 0 lm announce = False lm interval = 60 preferred master = False local master = No domain master = False browse list = Yes enhanced browsing = Yes dns proxy = No wins proxy = No wins server = wins support = No wins hook = kernel oplocks = Yes oplock break wait time = 0 add share command = change share command = delete share command = config file = preload = lock dir = /var/opt/samba/locks default service = message command = dfree command = valid chars = remote announce = remote browse sync = socket address = 0.0.0.0 homedir map = time offset = 0 NIS homedir = No source environment = panic action = hide local users = No host msdfs = No winbind uid = winbind gid = template homedir = /home/%D/%U template shell = /bin/false winbind separator = \ winbind cache time = 15 winbind enum users = Yes winbind enum groups = Yes comment = path = alternate permissions = No username = guest account = hypxyz invalid users = valid users = admin users = read list = write list = printer admin = force user = force group = read only = Yes create mask = 0744 force create mode = 00 security mask = 0777 force security mode = 00 directory mask = 0755 force directory mode = 00 directory security mask = 0777 force directory security mode = 00 unix ignore mask = Yes inherit permissions = No guest only = No guest ok = No only user = No hosts allow = 10. hosts deny = unrestricted symlink creation = No status = Yes nt acl support = Yes max connections = 0 min print space = 0 strict allocate = No strict sync = No sync always = No write cache size = 0 max print jobs = 1000 printable = No postscript = No printing = hpux print command = lp -c -d%p %s;

Windows NT SP3 and above as well as Win98 and above expect encrypted passwords by default. Setting encrypted passwords = yes in your smb.conf I believe will eliminate the error (although I've never seen the error so I'm just guessing).
