i wish i could give you some clearer help but i've not done this myself
i suggest you take a look in the log files
after adding
log level = 2
to your global section
/var/log/samba/log.smbd
another thing to try is to up your sambabox in a different workgroup (ie
devgroup2)
if you don't know what to make of the results of your log file post them
here.
