Samba 1.9.16p11 and the NT Servicepack 3

Applies to

Samba: Version 1.9.15p11

Symptom:

You have installed Samba 1.9.15p11. After installing the servicepack 3 on Windows NT the login on the Samba server fails.

Ursache:

Windows NT refuses to transport undecoded passwords.

Solution:

Dr. Albert Kapune gave us the following hint:
The NT-TECO hotline in Karlsruhe:

This problem is known and occurs on Unix side.
You will need a new Samba version. Reason. Windows NT refuses ANY undecoded
password (which is very common in the Unix world (telnet etc.)).

(Thanks a lot! ;-))

For being able of still using undecoded passwords you may change your registry entry on the NT client

EnablePlainTextPassword:REG_DWORD=1
in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\rdr\parameters\
.

There is a new Samba version available also on our FTP site: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse50/n1/samba/samba.rpm.
