I have a IIS 5 web server running on a Windows XP box. I want to use a Samba share (on a Mac OSX machine) as the www root (document root), but get access problems when I try doing so. I think my problem is related to this previous question I found in the list archives, but I couldn't find any answers. http://www.mail-archive.com/ samba@lists.samba.org/msg05340.html

I also found this at Microsoft's Knowledge Base, but I can't get it right. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q256322

In regards to the Microsoft article I have four questions.
1. Is this relevant for Windows XP?
2. What's the Regedit key in XP? Is it MACHINE/System/ CurrentControlSet/Services/LanmanWorkstation/Parameters/ EnablePlainTextPasswor as suggested here http://lists.samba.org/ archive/samba/2003-February/061643.html 3. Microsoft says "Map a drive letter to \\<servername>\iisroot using 'root' and "password". What do they mean with "root". Samba "root", Mac OSX "root"...???

Thanks in advance!
