Thats not the problem. We are using Samba 2.2.2 and we have Win 2k
systems. We use upper, lower, special characters, and numbers in our
passwords. We are using Samba as a PDC running on Solaris 8.

I see a few differences when I view the testparm output on our
system:
    password level = 0
    username level = 0
    lanman auth = Yes
    name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast

The above are Samba default settings. We also added the following lines
to our dhcpd.conf file in the subnet section:
    option netbios-name-servers 10.2.2.3;
    option netbios-dd-server 10.2.2.3;
    option netbios-dd-server 10.2.2.3;
    option netbios-node-type 8;
