Samba is trying to use hostname instead of username

Hi,
I've just installed samba at a Linux server in a network with about 100
NT 4 clients. Everything is working fine... except for the password authentication.
I did some research and found out that samba is trying to validate the password together with the HOSTNAME!
Here are some strings that are used as 'username':
lok05pc11
Lok05pc11
lok05pc11
LOK05PC11
lok05pc11 is the hostname of the machine that is trying to log in.
What am I doing wrong? Why is samba checking all these names?
Tia,
Jelmer
