Solved on my end. I used a proprietary shareware program called PocketLan and 
I was able to connect to my samba share w/o problems. The native networking 
software included with Windows Mobile 2003 continues to fail. Obviously, that 
sucks.

If I can help with this via diagnostics, log files or whatever, I'll be glad 
to do so.
