I had similar problems recently. The problem was that W2k (and newer NT releases) do not want to talk to SMB servers which don't use encrypted passwords. What you need to do is this: encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd (or someplace else, if you have no /etc/samba directory) Than as root, you need to give each windows user a password. smbpasswd -a windows_user1 smbpasswd -a windows_user2 ... etc ...
