Dear  Prabhu,
    No you need not to turn ON plain text password.
Create m/c account as

#adduser  mac1$ -d /dev/null
#smbpasswd -a -m  mac1$

Your need to create a user which has all the rights e.g root.

#smbadduser root
#smbpasswd root

Here root will be the user name which let you to join the domain  in Linux.

Also if it gives "Access denied " as the problem them make sure the login user
does have reading access to
/etc/samba/smbpasswd file.

Check for interface on which samba is listening and the netmask of client & server
(actually both should match.)

You should also run tcpdump to see which one is not hand shaking from any other
client in LAN.

Regards,
-Yash
