Could it be FAQ 3.8?
3.8. I've applied NT 4.0 SP3, and now I can't access Samba shares,
Why?
As of SP3, Microsoft has decided that they will no longer default to
passing clear text passwords over the network. To enable access to
Samba shares from NT 4.0 SP3, you must do ONE of two things:
1. Set the Samba configuration option 'security = user' and implement
all of the stuff detailed in ENCRYPTION.txt
<ftp://samba.anu.edu.au/pub/samba/docs/ENCRYPTION.txt>.
2. Follow Microsoft's directions for setting your NT box to allow
plain text passwords. see Knowledge Base Article Q166730
