If you are using any win98 (or MS machines that use encrypted password authentication), be sure to read the documents that come with samba, I got caught out by this 'feature' a few months ago ;)..

Check out all the help I got on it last month from the alug in the archives - lots of troubleshooting there. (Not that I got it working,but that doesn't mean anything!!!). Good weekend, all, I'm off to the Lakes to see the folks. Jenny.
