Re: samba password changes after potato upgrade



Ok, I upgraded to 2.2.10 kernel but my Samba still does not recognise my passwords
from my win 95 system.

My old samba configuration used plain text passwords if my memory serves me right.  I
think there was a problem with encription of passwords when I first installed it.  If
this is the case, how do I go about setting up my system to accept passwords?  Any
help pointing me in the correct direction would be greatly appriciated!
