I got around this by setting 'server = MYNTBOX' and 'security = server'

If you do this, any id that is going to access a machine via Samba, will
need to have a valid password on the NT box.


There's another way to resolve this, but I think it requires a recompile
of Samba to use encrypted passwords.  Check out the docs on the Samba
web site, there's very specific info regarding this there.

It should be illegal to yell "Y2K" in a crowded economy.
