Win2k and Linux

This is a discussion about Win2k and Linux in the Windows Software category; I have a Linux server, and I used to connect my windows computer to this server using SAMBA. But I can't seem to get it working with Win2k professional, does anybody know how to get this working? With win9x I had to change something in the registry but with win2k this option does not excist in the registry.

Search the forum for "SAMBA" or "SMB". This question has been asked - and answered - before.

you need to enable clear text passwords ...REGEDIT4
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanworkstation\parameters]
"enableplaintextpassword"=dword:00000001
 
that will do the trick
 
i can email a file to you that will make the registry entry bu it's basically the above
