Add
encrypt passwords = no
to smb.conf.
If you have Windows clients, you may have to add a registry key
(EnablePlainTextPasswords=1 under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\VNETSUP or
something similar). This ensures that the Windows clients don't encrypt
the passwords before transfering them.
