Well, I am not sure. You might try setting encryption to "yes"
Most of the samba settings can be done through the most recent version
of linuxconf
Of course, one important one is workgroup... This should match the
windows name for it or they will have all sorts of annoying
difficulties--like seeing each other but not accessing files.
Good luck
And if setting it to yes doesn't work, type out your settings in Network
Neighborhood into a text file then
cat smb.conf >> networksettings and email me personally with that file
attachment.
