On the linux side (where samba is running) you can run smbpasswd to create a samba passwd file. In /etc/smb.conf you can include the option encrypt passwords = yes I think in win98 they changed from using cleartext passwords to encrypted passwords. You then login to win98 with the password you specified with the user using smbpasswd. I would suggest reading the manual pages for smb.conf and smbpasswd. I have had the same problems win XP, but have not had time to check what the problems are. I know this works with win98. scc writes:
Hi
I browse a w98 client from our SuSE 7.3 server using smb://compuer_name. No problems. But I can't drop files from the server to the same client. It says access denied. Is it something to do with permissions?
Thanks, Steve.
