I am having almost exactly the same problem. I am running Samba v2.2.5 on
HP-UX 11.0, and two of my Win2k machines (that I've found so far) are
exhibiting this behavior on the shared [homes] volume. The others seem to
be working properly. Here's a brief excerpt of a debug = 3 chat between
the working machine and the server and then the non working machine:

...why on earth did it decide that he was a guest? There is no logical
reason for it. I have 'map to guest' set to "bad user." Doesn't make sense
to me. I am willing to send more data if you require, of course. Thank you
very much -- this is stressing me out here! :)
