Are you using Win95 or '98... if you are you have to set it up so that you
enable logins on the Windows machine because if you don't it'll try to login
to samba with an invalid user name.  It's in the Samba docs, it just not
real obvious - this is such a common problem I don't understand why they
don't have a specific entry about it.  It's even just glossed over in the
Samba O'Reily book...
