Hello Bostjan,
as far as I know no further entries in Sambas Makefile are needed. From
"man smb.conf":
encrypt passwords (G)
This boolean controls whether encrypted passwords will be
negotiated with the client. Note that Windows NT 4.0 SP3
and above will by default expect encrypted passwords
unless a registry entry is changed. To use encrypted pass�
words in Samba see the file docs/ENCRYPTION.txt.
I had a quick look into that article, but it was to complicated for me.
;-(
User validation depends also on the way you validate. (i.e.
security=server).
I suppose you need the additional smbpasswd file if you use security =
user/share with NT-clients.
