Did you add machine accounts to smbpasswd and passwd?
Is your root account able to log in to samba?
Have you set up a user mapping between Adminstrator and root using the
username map global conf setting?

What version of samba are you running? (i recommend you wait for 2.2.6
unless you're comfortable patching 2.2.5)
What is the backed - ldap, passwd/smbpasswd, winbind?
What SP level are the 2k machines?
Are these new users or did you try to migrate the user profiles from a
windows server? (you can't just copy the files)
What do the samba logs say?
