Does Windows XP send encrypted passwords by default? Win 98 does that and the workaround is to make Win98 send out plain text passwords. This can be done in the registry. See the file Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the samba docs.
maybe this is how it works for Windows XP too.
If we dont have win95 machines in the lan it is beter to go for encrpted passwords.
