 A samba server with encrypted paawords on Solaris8 does not correctly

 smbclient can correctly handle this situation, but NT 4.0 and W2K cannot
 connect to a share protected with encrypted password 9 chars long. The
 newly ported LynxOS Server shows the same problem ;-)
 

Make sure REPLACE_GETPASS is defined in config.h.  I tested this on 
Solaris 8 prior to release and everything was working fine.

OH forgive me... The solaris server I tested was 2.2.4. And yes, it works 
correctly with 2.2.7.

I tried the REPLACE_GETPASS with lynxos, and it seems to work now. Thank you 
very much.
