Hi
yeah .. i had exactly the same problem, user the "older" rpm and it was fixed.
I tried it with my username (frank), no prob. Then i tried the share with the
username from a "regular" user, Rob, and i get "wrong password". Changed his
pass as root, same result. Deleted the user, made the user "Rob" new, same
problem. I could login on console or so, but not on the mac. I made another
user, "david", tried .. worked. So i changed Rob ( the bloody macusers all had
the username starting with CAPS) into rob, problem solved. Is that a known
problem ??
greetings,
frank
