[Samba] WinXP problems accessing Samba shares

I'm having problems accessing Samba shares from my XP Pro machine.  Samba
2.2.7 is installed on two Redhat 8.0 machines and configured using SWAT.  I
have user level security and encrypted passwords setup.  I have a printer
shared on both servers as well as home directories and one restricted access
share.  My printers are setup for guest access so all machines will always
be able to print.  One server acts as a WINS server, although it's probably
not necessary since my workgroup doesn't span subnets.

I have a Windows '98 laptop that can access all shares without any trouble.
I can use smbclient to access all shares without any trouble.  With my
Windows XP Pro system, I can't access any of the file shares including the
home directories on either Samba box.  I have included the relevant output
from the logfile for my XP machine as well as my working Win '98 machine.
Samba finds the username in /etc/samba/smbpasswd, but both the NT MD4 and
LanMan password checks fail from the XP machine.  I have no idea why because
my Win '98 machine works just fine using the same login credentials.  I have
also included the smb.conf file for the server that was used for testing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I'm scratching my head on this
one.  Thanks in advance...
