samba FS, NT PDC

[Stephen Waters]

one of my users can't access samba shares though he can access NT PDC shares 
and other windows shares on the local net. he is using the correct username
and password, the only difference is the workgroup/domain.

situation:
samba 2.0.5a
------relevant smb.conf params-------
security = domain
password server = ntpdc
workgroup = amicus
-------------------------------------

user on win98 box
workgroup as KILCREASE
attempts to access samba box and generates this log.smb:
