Auth failure

Hi all. I found some more information regarding my [homes] section
problem. I have NT 4.0 without the SP3 patch (yet) and Linux 2.0.31-pre9,
samba 1.9.17p1.
My homes section is configured like this:
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = yes
writable = yes
path = /home/%u
When I click on that share I expect it to take me to the directory of the
username I'm logged in as in NT. Instead it asks me for a username and
password which is always invalid. /var/log/messages reports:
Sep 19 01:55:04 apps PAM_pwdb[972]: 1 authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
nobody for samba service
Why is this? I'm trying to login as user steve, and his home directory
exists, and I can login from Linux just fine. Can someone tell me what's
going on here, and possibly what their favorite [homes] section config
options are?
Thanks,
Dave Wreski
