If I remember correctly there Win98/WinNT send their passwords over the LAN in
an encrypted format and unless you have Samba configured to accept it , it
will be rejected. Under /doc (I think its been awhile) you'll see a file
called encrypt.txt , browse that and it will tell you want you have to do.

"Though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven,
that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts made weak by time
and fate but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yield"
