...ux, which I know a lot about. It took a great deal of debugging and help from experts to get some simple file sharing going because of some gaps in the documentation: It appears that the instructions in the file UNIX-INSTALL won't work for most users. They direct you to set up a server using nonencrypted passwords, and all modern Windows systems by default will refuse to connect to such a server. And Windows being what it is, you don't get a nice error message telling you you have configured your server wrong -- the message is "Incorrect password. Enter the correct one." Therefore...

Hi all. YAP (Yet Another Problem). I recently posted about the correct way to deal with encrypted vs nonencrypted passwords. I've gotten that to work, but I don't think its correct.

The relevant lines of smb.conf are passwd chat = *Old*password* %o\n "1):" \n *New*password* %n\n *Re-enter*password* %n \n passwd chat debug = yes passwd program = /bin/passwd unix password sync = yes When I try to change t...

(Sorry, third time -- last one, promise, just giving it a subject line!) OK, a second machine hosted at the same hosting company has also apparently been hacked. Since 2 of out of 3 machines hosted at that company have now been hacked, but this hasn't happened to any of the other 37 dedicated servers that I've got hosted at other hosting companies (also CentOS, same version or almost),
