[Samba] NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME

I am trying to run Samba 3.0.24-11.fc6 on Fedora Core 6. I've run across
two problems that are keeping me from being successful.
1. IPTables. Even when I configure it through Webmin to not run at
startup, it does anyway. I consider this a minor problem, at least for now,
although I wouldn't mind some input on how to configure it to allow Samba.
2. Access to shares. We are running an NT4 network. I have joined the
Samba server to the domain and can see it in the browse list on my XP
machine. I can also see the shares. However, when I double-click on the
shares, I am prompted for a password which fails. I have been through Samba
Security and Troubleshooting guide from Linux Home Networking and numerous
other documents with no positive results. This is the test that fails:
[root at custer www]# smbclient //Custer/Intranet -U ccarpenter
Password:
Domain=[HCCMHMRC] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.24-11.fc6]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
This test works (Colnago being the PDC):
[root at custer www]# smbclient -L Custer
Password:
Anonymous login successful
Domain=[HCCMHMRC] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.24-11.fc6]

My username on the NT4 network is exactly the same as on the Samba server;
however, I have no password on the Samba server. I use this setup on
several other servers with no problem, which is part of the irony of the
situation. I have another server running FC6 and the same version of Samba
and it works perfectly. The only difference that I can tell is that I got
Samba working straight off the FC6 installation disks before doing any
updates whereas this time I did all the updates first. I have checked for
the existence of a 'msdfs'; none could be found. I do not have SELinux
installed:
[root at custer www]# rpm -q selinux
package selinux is not installed
Testparm shows the following:
[root at custer www]# testparm -s
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf

The actual smb.conf looks like this:
#======================= Global Settings ==================================

[Intranet]

create mode = 774

I am not using winbindd or ldap.
Any help with this would be appreciated. It's really annoying when my boss
sticks his head in the door every 20 minutes and says "Well?"
