Comment 2 for bug 208531

Hi Mike,

The error you're experiencing is because Samba in Ubuntu 8.04 beta uses stronger defaults for password negotiation. It appears that the appliance you're connecting to is based on an old version of Samba that only supports weak password encryption, so you will need to add the line "client use lanman auth = yes" in /etc/samba/smb.conf, as suggested by the error message.

This is unrelated to the behavior described in Boaz's bug report.
