Now this is the typical symptom of bug #82, for which
there is a patch diff file as attachment #62 at

   https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82

You'll have to recompile your samba after applying the
patch and then the problem disappears.

After the patch for bug #82 is applied, then you also
need to configure the default settings as I described
in my previous posting.
