I have configured samba to use security = user, encrypt passwords = yes
and I have added a user using smbpassword.  smbclient from a unix host
works fine.  However, when I try to access a share from a Windows XP
box, I get the following in the logs:

[2002/05/31 17:28:50, 2] smbd/reply.c:(110)
  netbios connect: local=atgdet09 remote=pc5
[2002/05/31 17:28:50, 2] smbd/password.c:(575)
  pass_check_smb failed - invalid password for user [jweage]
[2002/05/31 17:28:50, 2] smbd/reply.c:(963)
  NT Password did not match for user 'jweage'!
[2002/05/31 17:28:50, 2] smbd/reply.c:(973)
  Defaulting to Lanman password for jweage
[2002/05/31 17:28:50, 2] smbd/password.c:(575)
  pass_check_smb failed - invalid password for user [jweage]
[2002/05/31 17:28:50, 1] smbd/reply.c:(989)
  Rejecting user 'jweage': authentication failed
[2002/05/31 17:28:50, 2] smbd/server.c:(461)
  Closing connections

Any ideas what is going wrong here?

Thanks,

Josh
