Do you have "encrypt passwords = yes" in your smb.conf file?  XP uses 
encrypted passwords by default, and since they're preferable to 
plaintext, then you need to enable them on the server.  I seem to 
remember the samba docs saying "don't enable this if you don't know what 
you're doing" but the opposite is true since every windows release since 
98 has used encrypted passwords by default.
