Wayne, can you handle the table registration?

I'll be at TCF as a speaker on Sunday. I'll be available to spend a couple 
of hours at the Linux table or to assist with a Linux presentation that 
day. Just will need an hour or 90 minutes to check the vendors' tables, 
cruising for hardware and software. (Alas, the legal notices on the 
dumpsters are sufficient to deter dumpster diving for techno castoffs after 
the show. It was nicer in the old days when the understanding was that the 
TCF nor convention center were responsible for a dumpster diver's injuries.

Samba would be a great item to present because it show how we can have 
different systems on a network coexisting, a great sweetener for Linux's 
introduction into a home or an office. I am still trying to figure other 
Samba at home. My Windows 98 SE system can now see the samba shared 
directory on the Linux system via Network Neighborhood. The problem I am 
encountering is that when I try to access the share directory, I get a 
password prompt and it is not accepting the password I set up. My guess is 
that it has to do with encrypted passwords. The Linux smb.conf is calling 
for encrypted passwords.
