Jim:

The samba version is 2.2.7a

I have tried to strep my smb.conf file, to the point it just has the
following entries, the win2000 machine now sees the server, but will not
allow Me to login.

My goal here, is just to have samba use passwd/shadow to get login names and
passwords, and send people off to their home directories. Something very
clear and hopefully simple.

[global]
   workgroup = WOLFPACK
   encrypt passwords = yes
   domain master = yes

    [homes]
      guest ok = no
      read only = no


Output of log.smbd
[2003/04/01 12:28:19, 0] smbd/server.c:main(707)
  smbd version 2.2.7a started.
