[Samba] 2k and 9x connect and print, XP won't

Good day!

I am running Samba3 on a Mandrake 9.1 box.  Right now, I have "security
= user", but am not using any password authentication yet.  I have 95
and 98 computers that can reach the shares available and print to the
installed printer, and even a Windows 2000 user can do all of this.
However, an XP computer I have can't go there.  I double-click
"DRAKEJAX" (the netbios name), and it prompts me for a username and
password.  No matter what user/pass combo I use, from XP I cannot get
there.

Anyone have a similar experience?  Maybe a solution, too?  Thanks!

Eric
