Do the w98se and wme systems "login" 
with some username and a blank password? 
w2k, wxp, and (I think) wnt boxes can 
mount network drives using different 
passwords AND usernames, but w95/w98/wme 
class machines can only use one username 
to access network resources (but 
possibly many different passwords).

I don't know if that is the problem, 
but I thought I'd throw it out there...

I'm having trouble getting samba to run on my local domain.  Here's the
particulars:

Slack 8.0 machine running samba (don't know version right now)
Win98se and WinMe systems.
Running local DNS, no Domain controllers
EnablePlainTextPassword is set to 1 on both Win boxes.

When I try and connect to the samba share (\\wormy\data), I get the
share
name
listed
and a box to enter password.  However no user name entry field.  I've
set up Samba at work to authenticate both locally and against the domain
(NT) at work successfully, but it doesn't work here.  Any ideas?


Thanks,

Shawn
