One problem I have with Samba though is that it only supports one method
of authentication at one time.
Win95 machines have a different authentication method to Win98 + NT
machines, in that in the newer OSes the password is sent in encrypted form,
but not under 95.
So, I can either have my Win98 + NT boxes authenticate correctly and be able
to access the files, or the Win95 boxes. But not both.
Bummer huh?
