[PLUG] samba and win2k



Hiya, 
	Having an annoying problem with samba here that maybe some of you
could shed some light on. I'm trying to get my win2k box to be able to
access shares on my linux box. No domains or anything, just plain old
workgroups. The account I log into the win2k machine with has the same
username/password as the account on the linux machine. What I want is USER
level security so that I dont have to supply a user/pass for each share I
try to access. However, whether I use SHARE or USER level security I still
get prompted to enter a username and password. The only difference seems
to be at what point I get asked to login. With USER security I get asked
to login as soon as I try to access the server and with SHARE security I
get dont get asked until I try to access a specific share on the server.
The latter makes sense, the former does not. Also, I *have* enabled
plaintext passwords on the win2k machine. Any ideas?
