I experienced a similiar problem but it turned out to be that NT 4.0-SR2
now encrypts the password and samba by default was expecting plain-text
passwords. If you are using NT 4.0 with Service Release 2, this may be
your problem. I believe this problem is discussed in the documentation
that comes with at least the latest version of samba.
