Whoops sorry about the repeat post i pressed the wrong button.

This looks like a case of wrong password encryption i know a lot of people
use samba with the old win95 plain_text_password. Win95OSR2 or nt service
pack3 onwards all passwords are encrypted by default. It's generally easier
to use samba with plain text password.
Anyway i can send you the registry program if you want it or its probably
available on the samba site.
