In the control panel applet you can specify to change the win password,
the network password (samba server) or both. 
Have you told win9x to logon to the samba domain (client for ms network

If enabled, disable password sync since you don't need it.
See if you used correctly "intrefaces", "hosts allow".
try
smbpasswd -r <your-samba-name>
