Hi,
I'm using the Slackware at work. Every thing works great but I cannot
receive mail from a MS-Exchange server.
Samba is only to share files and printers. Slackware in not a PAM system so
I can't use the pam_smb or pam_ntdom.
My error message is "invalid password". Is it because the Linux and NT
password encryption are not the same ?
I will appreciate if someone can help me on this.

Thanks
Jean-Christophe Fargette

Does it have POP or IMAP enabled? Exchange by default uses it's own
non-standard protocol.

Quote:>My error message is "invalid password".

From what mail client? Unless you have pop or imap support on the
server you can't receive mail from Exchange servers using standards-
based clients.

Hi Jean-Christophe

yes, they are normally not the same.
But ist posibble to connect from NT to Samba by configuring Password
encryption on Samba.
If you want to connect to the MS Exchange server, you have to disable the
Microsoft Authentication on the Exchange Server.
