It sounds like you might have a very high level of 'restrict anonymous'
set on the DC, (that is 'restrictanonymous=2').  This breaks all
pre-win2k systems, and Samba's NTLM logins.

If you upgrade to Samba 3.0 alpha, we can use the winbindd connections
to get to the NETLOGON pipe, and authenticate NTLM logins (I hope), but
the real advantage is we get kerberos, which works much better anyway
:-)
