[homes] not usable in 18p4?

We just upgraded from samba-1.9.17p2 to 1.9.18p4 and seemed to have
lost the ability to connect to the "[homes]" service.

When users try to use that service, the NT logon dialog always
returns with  "invalid password or username" error.  Using
an explicit user name works.

In other words, connecting to:

  \\sambaServer\homes
  
does not work, but

   \\sambaServer\vince
  
does work.

Can anyone tell me if it's a smb.conf setting that has changed?  Thanks!
