Hi list!

I have managed to get the software compiled and running. I can see the
server in the chooser. I am now getting the following error message when I
select the server:

"The User Authentication Method required by this server can't be found.
Please check the AppleShare folder in the Extensions folder and try again."

I assume this has something to do with the DES encryption. I assume also
that plain text passwords are disabled. Is there any way of adding the DES
capability to the Mac? Or, failing that, just re-enable plain text passwords
in the compile?

Do any fellow FreeBSDers think it would be worth making a package of this
version? Too cutting edge?

Many thanks,
Jason.
