It worked. Amazing, I almost lose all my hair over this.
It must be said that security = share won't work, only security = user. It's been said that Tiger would not allow share and unencrypted passwords. I modified my smb.conf to now say
encrypt passwords = yes
security = user
I was also having problems with an existing user. Deleting it with smbpasswd -x user and then adding it back again with smbpasswd -a user allowed that user to be able to connect again.
Thanks a lot for your patience since I know you had previously answered my call for help. I just was afraid to use those commands since I always install from source with ./configure, make and make install.

Hello XL bear,
This is part of a thread (titled SMB fileserver) that appeared in late March. This is the most important e-mail of the bunch but I posted a few follow-up clarification e-mails that you may want to check out (detailing what I did to get SMB working).
Follow the hint...

If you can't find enough info to get you going, let me know & I can FWD the others too.
Good luck, Eric.

1) Grab the samba src rpm from your favorite mirror:
ftp://mirror.services.wisc.edu/mirrors/linux/distributions/ yellowdog/update
s/yellowdog-4.0/SRPMS/samba-3.0.10-1.ydl.1.src.rpm
2) install it (as root): rpm -ivh samba-3.0.10-1.ydl.1.src.rpm
3) Save the attached patch to /tmp/
4) cd /usr/src/yellowdog/SPECS/; patch -p0 < /tmp/samba-pwd.pat
5) cd ..; rpmbuild -bb SPECS/samba.spec
6) rpm -Fvh RPMS/ppc/samba-*
