[Samba] XP Pro And Samba

[Scott Moseman]

I am getting this error message under our XP Pros:

 \\server is not accessible.  You might not have permission
 to use this network resource.  Contact the administrator...

Sometimes I will continually get this message, and
occasionally I may get a username/password prompt 
and am able to login and see the shares.

My 2K Pro sometimes gives me errors, but eventually
its lets me have access -- and then I have no issues.
(Unless I reboot, and then the problem starts again.)

We are in a non-domain environment (using 1 workgroup name).
Is there some setting that I need to check?  Either on the
Samba side or on the NT/2K/XP workstations?

I'm runing 2.2.4 and 2.2.5 here an have 2 winxp pro machines
logging into the samba servers on a workgroup with no problems
either. Not sure what your problem could be.  Also have 2 winxp
pro machines on my network at home running 2.2.4 samba an they
both login with no trouble. Had 3 before I got married an my
roommate moved. will soon have wifes machine winxp pro also.
