NT4 User Unable to log in to Samba 1.9.17p5

I've got a user here that is unable to connect to any of the Samba shares
that are available -- in fact, she doesn't even get past the username /
password
validation step.  The message that Samba puts into the logs is as follows :

NT Password did not match ! Defaulting to Lanman

To narrow down the problem, I logged onto her machine as myself
(from the same domain also) and then got onto the Samba server
without any problems.  Her username is 8 characters, is there some limit
on valid usernames?  We are running with encrypted passwords, and both
she and I have changed her password in the samba smbpasswd file without
any luck.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
