[Samba] security=share problem with NT 4.0

I'm having a problem authenticating to my Samba server.  I'm NOT using
winbind, and I have setup local users in the smbpasswd file.  My w2k
workstation works as I would expect and when I connect I see the following
in the log.smbd.

[2002/05/14 10:38:23, 2] smbd/reply.c:reply_sesssetup_and_X(980)
  Defaulting to Lanman password for administrator
[2002/05/14 10:38:23, 3] smbd/reply.c:reply_sesssetup_and_X(1018)
  Registered username administrator for guest access
[2002/05/14 10:38:23, 3] smbd/process.c:chain_reply(1005)
  Chained message
[2002/05/14 10:38:23, 3] smbd/process.c:switch_message(667)
  switch message SMBtconX (pid 3118)
[2002/05/14 10:38:23, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(321)
  setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0
[2002/05/14 10:38:23, 3] smbd/password.c:authorise_login(834)
  authorise_login: ACCEPTED: session list username (administrator) and given
password ok

********       But, when I connect using an NT 4.0 box with Service Pack 6a.
I get:      *********

[2002/05/14 10:35:57, 3] smbd/reply.c:reply_sesssetup_and_X(866)
  sesssetupX:name=[ADMINISTRATOR]

  setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0
[2002/05/14 10:35:57, 3] smbd/password.c:authorise_login(898)
  authorise_login: ACCEPTED: guest account and guest ok (nobody)

In the smb.conf I _do_ have encrypted passwords=yes.   I don't understand
why smbd doesn't detect that the NT workstation logged in as administrator
but changes it to guest.

Any help is appreciated !!
