I'm experiencing the same problems on Solaris 2.6, with tng-a11. 

I also am unable (after logging into the local machine as Admin) to use
"Map Network Drive" to mount a share from my Samba PDC (domain SAMBA) with 
the following info:

	Drive: 		J:
	Share: 		\\PDC\user
     -> Connect As: 	user
	Pass:		userpass

*however*, I am able to mount a share from my Samba PDC with this info:

	Drive:		J:
	Share:		\\PDC\user
     -> Connect As:	SAMBA\user
	Pass:		userpass

When I prepend the domain name ("SAMBA\") to the username, I can 
successfully mount up the share. 

I got the idea for trying this after I compared the snoop output of 
a successful smbclient mount with an attempted mount from the NT4.0 client, 
and noticed that the smbclient mount appeared to qualify the username
with "SAMBA\" , and the mount from the NT box did not.
