[Samba] Authentication problem with samba 2.2.5

We have started to upgrade or Unix servers from Samba 2.0.7 to Samba 2.2.5.
I did one machine as test and all worked fine.  Today I tried adding two
more today and both come up with the "Incorrect password or unknown
username" box in Windows Explorer.  All the Unix servers are running Solaris
7.  I did the make on an NFS file system once and then ran 'make install' on
each machine as I had done with 2.0.7.
The PDC runs Windows NT 4.0 Service pack 6.0.  Using server manager I
removed the samba server from the Domain, readded it as a workstation and
then ran 'smbpasswd -j HR -r DRIZZLE'.  It then showed up as a Samba 2.2.5
server on the server manager.  smbclient -U% -L localhost shows for the one
that works:

superior# smbclient -U% -L localhost
added interface ip=192.9.200.121 bcast=192.9.203.255 nmask=255.255.252.0
Domain=[HR] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.5]

The working machine superior has the following smb.conf file:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.9.201.3 (192.9.201.3)
# Date: 2002/06/20 15:26:04

[global]
        workgroup = HR
        security = DOMAIN
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        password server = DRIZZLE HAIL SNOW
        username map = /etc/samba/usermap.txt
        log file = /var/log/samba
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY
        load printers = No
        os level = 0
        dns proxy = No
        read only = No
        create mask = 0774
        directory mask = 0775

[cmp_aps]
        comment = cmp_aps
        path = /export/cmp_aps

[tideway]
        comment = tideway
        path = /export/tideway

[test]
        comment = Test account
        path = /cmp_aps/daveer/temp.dir/test
        inherit permissions = Yes
        inherit acls = Yes

The failing machine chub:

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from dhcp262 (192.9.203.8)
# Date: 2000/12/04 16:14:57

# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = HR
        security = DOMAIN
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        password server = DRIZZLE HAIL SNOW 
        username map = /etc/samba/usermap.txt
        log file = /var/log/samba
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY
        load printers = No
        os level = 0
        dns proxy = No
        read only = no
        create mask = 0774
        directory mask = 0775

[chub]
        comment = chub work store 
        path = /chub

Both are very similar in setup so am surprised when I can access the shares
for superior, but not chub.  The Unix permissions seem fine.  The log for
chub shows:
