The problem is almost definitely encrypted passwords. Starting with Win98 and NT4(SP3), Windows defaults to encrypted passwords when accessing shared network resources. You'll have to set "encrypt passwords = yes" in the Global section of smb.conf, and create an smbpasswd file using the smbpasswd utility. There whould be lots of articles about doing this on the Web. Start with the FAQ at samba.org or search Google for "Samba encrypt passwords". Tony - -- Anthony E.
