What are you samba and win9x settings as regards to password encryption?

Try to logon to that share from AIX directly, with smbclient, and see what
happens:
smbclient '\\server\<user name>' -U <user name>

Just to eliminate every possible problem, try to login to win9x with the same
unix login name.
