How to setup samba client to use plain passwords


Hi *,

I use samba server that does not use password encryption (it can not be changed). How to set up my samba client (samba-client-3.0.10-1.fc3) to use plain passwords.

Regards;

Thanks,

So it is not possible to have on one PC both samba server using password encryption and at the same time use samba-client to connect to other samba server that does not use encryption?

All the best;
