[Samba] Use of coding system/client code page prevents logins

[Douglas, Chuck]

Samba version: 2.28
Server O/S:  Solaris 2.6
Client O/S:  Windows NT (Japanese)

Contents of smb.conf (some names and IP changed but otherwise as is):

# Global parameters
[global]
#       client code page = 932
#       coding system = euc
        workgroup = OURWG
        remote announce = 172.16.22.255/OURWG
        security = server
        password server = ourpdc
        username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/username.txt
        username level = 2
        log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%I
        max log size = 500
        load printers = No
        preferred master = Yes
        local master = No
        mangled names = No

As written, we care able to log in to our server witout problems.
However, if we place the client code page = 932 and coding system = euc
into the file (currently commented out) any connections attempted cause a
username/password
prompt on the Client PC.

Log file for the client contains the following:

[2003/03/18 14:28:08, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:pdb_getsampwnam(1369)
  unable to open passdb database.
[2003/03/18 14:29:04, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:pdb_getsampwnam(1369)
  unable to open passdb database.
[2003/03/18 14:29:04, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:pdb_getsampwnam(1369)
  unable to open passdb database.
[2003/03/18 14:29:27, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:pdb_getsampwnam(1369)
  unable to open passdb database.
[2003/03/18 14:29:27, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:pdb_getsampwnam(1369)
  unable to open passdb database.

Again, this ONLY appears if we make use of the client code page and coding
system parameters.
Without these, parameters, however, all the EUC encoded filenames we have
appears scrambled.

Anyone have any idea what might be going wrong here?
