A new twist on regedt32 to allow plaintext passwords Windows 95/98 ============= Using the registry editor (regedit), create the registry setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\VNETSUP Add a new DWORD value: Value Name: EnablePlainTextPassword Data: 0x01. Windows NT ========== Using the registry editor (regedit), create the registry setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rdr\Parameters Add a new DWORD value: Value Name: EnablePlainTextPassword Data: 0x01 Windows 2000 ============ Using the registry editor (regedit), create the registry setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkStation\Parameters Add a new DWORD value: Value Name: EnablePlainTextPassword Data: 0x01 Once these registry changes have been made, reboot the Windows machine and try to map a network drive on the Samba server again. It should work as long as the Samba server is using plain text passwords. To configure Samba to use encrypted passwords: In the [global] section of /etc/smb.conf, add the following lines: encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd You are highly encouraged to read the files ENCRYPTION.txt, Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the Samba documentation before doing this! from linuxdoc.org downloaded windows media player 7.1 This seems to be very smooth. tom watson tosiwmee
