Hi,

By default Microsoft systems crypt password. Then Unix systems reject users specialy when using '/etc/password' users.

To Enable PlainText password change register key of Windows boxes:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\VNETSUP for W95 and W98, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ Services\Rdr\Parameters for WNT, W2000 or WXP. Add DWORD key 'EnablePlainTextPassword' with value = 1.

This solution isn't the best on long time. Good solution is that network server product on Unix boxes accept Windows password (using other password file than /etc/password). SAMBA does it. I don't know for Nfs product like Omni-nfs and pcnfsd.
