Hello, we have been running SuSE 9.3 on server and Win98SE, Win2000 and XP-Clients with Samba 3 without any problems After setting up the server with Debian Etch and Samba 3 (PDC) only WIN98SE users can logon. On Win2000 and XP only one user can logon without problems (password not changed, everything the same as all the other users), all others are being rejected. Machine-accounts seem okay useradd -g100 -u9100 -d /home/XP/winclient1 -s /sbin/false -c"winclient1" winclient1$ smbpasswd -a -m winclient1 The clients are the same as with SuSE, no change. Since on user can logon in SuSE as well as on Debian, the password-encrypting seems to be compatible. But why do all the other get the announcement: bad password. [2006/09/14 14:45:08, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(309) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [dg] -> [dg] -> [dg] succeeded [2006/09/14 14:45:16, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(309) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [dg] -> [dg] -> [dg] succeeded [2006/09/14 14:45:46, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(319) check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [dg] -> [dg] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD Why????
