file problem with samba2.4b and sun 2.6(sparc)

[Todd B. Blake]

We currently have an NT domain, and samba version 2.0.4b authenticating off of it
using security=server and password server = gold.  It seems whenever someone
changes their password from a 95/98 client on the NT domain, and then tried to
access the samba server, the samba server is passing an incorrect password to the
NT server, and thereby not allowing the user to access the samba shares.  If the
user changes their password and reboots, however, they can access the shares
without a problem.  I've tried security=domain as well and added myself to the
domain, and that didn't work at all.  Any clues?

P.S.  If the user is running NT, there is no problem.
