tags 171177 + patch thanks Hello,
I would change the samba-common/workgroup and samba-common/encrypt_passwords to something like this: --- samba-common.templates.orig 2008-08-12 21:22:16.000000000 +0200 +++ samba-common.templates 2008-08-12 21:26:18.000000000 +0200 @@ -30,15 +30,15 @@ Type: string Default: WORKGROUP _Description: Workgroup/Domain Name: - Please specify the workgroup you want this server to appear to be in - when queried by clients.

If you want to use clear text passwords you will need to change a parameter in your Windows registry. We can discuss is samba-common/encrypt_passwords could/should be removed because it was important for Windows 9x and NT and smb.conf now says about the option "encrypt passwords (G)": "The use of plain text passwords is NOT advised as support for this feature is no longer maintained in Microsoft Windows products."
