A couple of things - first, with Win98 you are normally using share
rather then user security when you share a directory on that

encryption, you have to give Samba users a password in addition to
the standard Linux password. They can be the same, and it can be set
up so that they are kept in sync once created.
If you want to use the Linux passwords directly, you have to tell
Windows to yous unencrypted passwords. This is somewhat of a
security risk. This is covered in the Samba documentation.
Thanks for that. Very helpful.
Cheers,
Bob.
