Do you have 'domain logons = yes' in the global section of smb.conf?  If
you need login scripts for NT clients you can either...

	- Place a batch file in the common startup group ( for All Users
	).  The samba server should accept guest access.  For example here
 	is the batch file on the local PC and login.bat is on a network
	share

		@echo off
		net use x: \\sambaguest\scripts /user:x x
		call x:\login.bat
		net use x: /d /yes

	and login.bat has whatever you want.

OR....

	- Get the BRANCH_NTDOM code via cvs and setup samba as an 
	NT PDC :)
