We had a hell of a time with Samba when Vista first came out. If you
can make any changes on the Vista side, this link might help:

Get Vista and Samba to work

Early adopters of Microsoft's new Vista operating system may notice
that it will not connect to Samba share folders out of the box. This
will be a bit of a pain for many enterprise customers. The technical
reason is because Microsoft Vista's default security policy is to only
use NTLMv2 authentication.
Current versions of Samba handle Vista fine. We use this in our
smb.conf file:
# If you're using Vista
client NTLMv2 auth = Yes
client lanman auth = Yes
client plaintext auth = Yes
use spnego = Yes
client signing = auto
server signing = auto
client use spnego = Yes
client schannel = Auto
server schannel = Auto
