Thanks Matt. It's already a domain member (and has been for at least a
couple of years), and it can view shares on the DC and any other machine
in the domain. That's because it's the remote machine which
authenticates the user. The only thing samba 2.2 appears unable to do
is to allow me to view the shares on the samba machine itself, because
then it's samba 2.2 that tries to do the authentication.

And the authentication is, as far as I can tell, the only thing not
working.

Probably. I just didn't want to do it without understanding why samba
2.2 wasn't working. We've had a lot of problems during the upgrade (on
the DC itself) and I wanted to be sure it wasn't just another Windows
problem.
And thanks again to everyone who's helped.
Cheers,
John
