Cannot access VisionFS shares using Win XP Pro. 1

[dh123]

I loaded onto my laptop Windows XP Pro. I no longer can access my visionfs shares using plain text passwords. I cannot change visionfs to encripted passwords.

Windows 98 and Windows 2000 works quite well with visionfs shares using plain text passwords. I set the configurations on my Win XP to match my Windows 2000. Still I cannot get access.

Has anyone solved this problem?

Please Help.
