[Samba] Authentication issue

[Board, Clint]

Running: RedHat 9, Samba 2.2.7a
Installed with the included RPMs from RedHat.

I sent a message yesterday about issues with wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g
returning the error:

"Error looking up domain users" and "Error looking up domain groups"
respectively.

I have determined that i believe the issue is with the authentication that
my system is trying using, if i run:

wbinfo -a 'DOM\\user%password' (I have tried differenct sperators in a
number of different ways)

I recieve:

Could not authenticate user DOM\\user%password with plaintext password

I have seen other posts mentioning a challenge/response request being sent,
what am i missing here?

Any help is appreciated :)
