Way back when it seems to me that you had to switch to non encryped passwords for samba as Bill Gates had instructed the members of his programing cult to use a msft unique not to be disclosed passwd encryption scheme. I believe Mr. Gates did this to make his OS immune to viruses and such.

Now I believe that is why the samba howto only speaks to one way around the Bill Gates way, as we all know Mr. Gates always never restrained progress, Except for Judge Jackson.

Now I think the Linux encrypted passwds are not used in samba, but I'm not sure of all the details.
