[Samba] Access Problem connecting from windows 2000 client to Samba UNIX server Share

[Rend, Jon (Jon) %]

On friday we changed our smb.conf file to test the security model that uses
DOMAIN authenticacion. It worked fine testing two seperate usernames from
Multiple Workstations connecting to a WORLD access share on the SAMBA
server.
 
I have to say nothing has changed at all since friday, apart from the
weekend :) and we now get this MS error message when trying to connect the
same share again from WINDOWS:
 
"The account is not authorized to log in from this station"
 
Just to confirm that on both WorkStations no network shares existed when we
tried again today?
 
I did find this and tried it also, it didn't make any difference:

This is an example of our smb.conf file:

Our Version = Samba 2.2.0
 
#  BROWSING

   workgroup = VTC

   server string = mn01m0008.agere.com

   announce as = NT

   local master = no

   preferred master = no

   domain master = no

   os level = 33

   wins server = 135.149.49.50

   remote announce = 135.149.49.50

 

#  AUTHENTICATION

   password server = *

#  security=server

   security = domain

#  encrypt passwords = yes
