Somewhere around the Appleshare 3.8 series Apple changed the way the
default password encryption works. With the older versions, you'd need
a special file for dealing with the default DHX method, but the newer
ones have built-in support. My 540C isn't here, so I can't see what
version of Appleshare it's running, but it does support DHX and
randnum encryption without any extra files. Have you tried updating
the 190 to 3.8.8? I think it may lose the ability to save the
passwords between sessions but it should work.
Or, if you can find a file called something like "DHX UAM" or
something about a Diffie-Helmann exchange UAM, create the folder that
it's complaining about not finding ("Appleshare UAM" under extensions?
I don't remember what messages I got) and put it in there. It should
work, but I couldn't find a copy through google when I looked.
