Hello,
     I'm hoping someone might be able to assist me with a problem with
samba I've noticed since upgrading to samba-2.2.7 this week.

First off, after cvsuping the ports tree the latest version available is
samba-2.2.7 but the version displayed at FreeBSD.org's ports/net/samba
is still showing version 2.2.6:

samba-2.2.7                         =   up-to-date with port

Here's the set up - 
Samba-2.2.7 on FreeBSD 4.7 Stable running as a PDC on a network. The
problem I'm seeing is that one user always gets "ACCESS DENIED" when
attempting to log in from the Win2K Pro client.

You get the message window that mentions that "you will be logged on
with you local profile, but nothing will be uploaded to the server at
the end of the session. Please contact the systems administrator."

However, once the Win2K box is all loaded up, I can still see the samba
mounted dir shares (home drive, printers etc) and use them. From the PDC
server, smbstatus and swat return details of the same user logged in and
can get status reports of the user's activities.

I've only noticed this login problem (if that's what it is) since the
upgrade to samba (on Thursday, I think). As mentioned before, this is
occurring only for this particular user. All other users listed in
/etc/passwd and added to smbpasswd all do not have this problem. I was
even able to use "root" at the Win2K box and successfully logged in.

Also, everything else appear to be fine otherwise - I can connect to and
use resources located on the Win2K box from *NIX machines, and can even
connect to and print to the windows attached printer across the network
using samba.

Please let me know if there's any further configs / logs that would be
required in order to assist diagnosing this.

Here's my smb.conf:
 $ cat /usr/local/etc/smb.conf
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) 
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
"testparm"
# to check that you have not many any basic syntactic errors. 
#
#======================= Global Settings
=====================================
[global]

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: REDHAT4
   workgroup = VICKIANDSTACEY
   netbios name = DEMON

# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
   server string = Samba Server

# This option is important for security. It allows you to restrict
# connections to machines which are on your local network. The
# following example restricts access to two C class networks and
# the "loopback" interface. For more examples of the syntax see
# the smb.conf man page
   hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127.

# If you want to automatically load your printer list rather
# than setting them up individually then you'll need this
   load printers = yes

# you may wish to override the location of the printcap file
   printcap name = /etc/printcap

# on SystemV system setting printcap name to lpstat should allow
# you to automatically obtain a printer list from the SystemV spool
# system
;   printcap name = lpstat

# It should not be necessary to specify the print system type unless
# it is non-standard. Currently supported print systems include:
# bsd, sysv, plp, lprng, aix, hpux, qnx
;   printing = bsd

# Uncomment this if you want a guest account, you must add this to
/etc/passwd
# otherwise the user "nobody" is used
;  guest account = pcguest

# this tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine
# that connects

# Put a capping on the size of the log files (in Kb).
   max log size = 50

# Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See
# security_level.txt for details.
   security = user

# Use password server option only with security = server
# The argument list may include:
#   password server = My_PDC_Name [My_BDC_Name] [My_Next_BDC_Name]
# or to auto-locate the domain controller/s
#   password server = *
;   password server = <NT-Server-Name>

# Note: Do NOT use the now deprecated option of "domain controller"
# This option is no longer implemented.

# You may wish to use password encryption. Please read
# ENCRYPTION.txt, Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the Samba documentation.
# Do not enable this option unless you have read those documents
  encrypt passwords = yes

# Using the following line enables you to customise your configuration
# on a per machine basis. The %m gets replaced with the netbios name
# of the machine that is connecting
;   include = /usr/local/etc/smb.conf.%m

# Most people will find that this option gives better performance.
# See speed.txt and the manual pages for details
# You may want to add the following on a Linux system:
#         SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY 

# Configure Samba to use multiple interfaces
# If you have multiple network interfaces then you must list them
# here. See the man page for details.

# Browser Control Options:
# set local master to no if you don't want Samba to become a master
# browser on your network. Otherwise the normal election rules apply
   local master = yes

# OS Level determines the precedence of this server in master browser
# elections. The default value should be reasonable
   os level = 64

# Domain Master specifies Samba to be the Domain Master Browser. This
# allows Samba to collate browse lists between subnets. Don't use this
# if you already have a Windows NT domain controller doing this job
   domain master = yes 

# Preferred Master causes Samba to force a local browser election on
startup
# and gives it a slightly higher chance of winning the election
   preferred master = yes

# Enable this if you want Samba to be a domain logon server for 
# Windows95 workstations. 
   domain logons = yes

   logon script = %U.bat

#       Note: Samba can be either a WINS Server, or a WINS Client, but NOT
both
;   wins server = w.x.y.z

# WINS Proxy - Tells Samba to answer name resolution queries on
# behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be
# at least one  WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.
;   wins proxy = yes

# DNS Proxy - tells Samba whether or not to try to resolve NetBIOS names
