Pogoplug Samba

So my PC worked with Samba, but my Hackintosh did not! :(

The difference was:

[global]
workgroup = PARKNET
server string = Pogoplug Samba2 Server
hosts allow = 192.168.3. 127.
null passwords = yes
guest account = root
log file = /opt/var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
security = share
encrypt passwords = no <------------ Not MAC happy
smb passwd file = /opt/etc/samba/smbpasswd
dns proxy = no
preserve case = yes

VS

[global]
workgroup = PARKNET
server string = Pogoplug Samba2 Server
hosts allow = 192.168.3. 127.
null passwords = yes
guest account = root
log file = /opt/var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
security = share
encrypt passwords = yes <------ MAC Happy
smb passwd file = /opt/etc/samba/smbpasswd
dns proxy = no
preserve case = yes

This is the explanation:

PS. Turns out "encrypt passwords = no" doesn't actually help, but prevents non-workgroup machines to connect without passwords (at least from a Windows XP machine). I've now set it to "yes".
