Also, (there sure are alot of also's with Samba...) Look in the /usr/doc/samba for examples. Somewhere in there, you will find some .reg files. For windoze9x, if you choose not to use encrypted passwords, you can run the regedit XXXXX.reg file on the win machine to enable plain text passwords. This will prevent you from having to have an smbpasswd entry for each user. Most people opt for the plain text, as it is easiest to maintain. You still have to have a shell account for each user, though... Ron --- j a s o n <jason@getch.net> wrote:

You have to create the user on linux first then

use

...

smbpasswd to set the password for that user under samba.

also, what ever user/account you establish on your linux box, should also be the same user/account that you are logged in as under winblows9x to gain access to your smb shares. good luck jason
