Most win95/98 clients will encript the password. The easyest thing to do is
to set Samba so that it does NOT encript the password and then edit the
registry of the client to turn off encription.
You need to run regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\VNETSUP
Then create the entry: "EnablePlainTextPassword"=dword:00000001
and reboot the client.
