Win95, 98 and ME will do as you've experienced; log in with existing username and password. Win NT, 2000 and XP lets you specify username and password, if you want to, when connecting to the share. This has lead to some trouble, since win NT below service pack 3 would send password in palin text, whilst servicepack 3 inroduced password encryption. can be changed with a registryhack bundled with samba. (Of course, the registry key is diffrent on NT compared to 2000, and again different on XP, i think) /Björn
