One other thing, it would appear that a username is not being
sent by the XP server.  If I use smbclient to get a list of
shares on the Samba server FROM the samba server, I see this
in the log file:

[2004/12/06 10:41:12, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(219)
   check_ntlm_password:  Checking password for unmapped user 
[PANDORANET]\[asmith]@[CERBERUS] with the new password interface
[2004/12/06 10:41:12, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(222)
   check_ntlm_password:  mapped user is: [PANDORANET]\[asmith]@[CERBERUS]

But, when doing the same thing to the XP box (or when trying log in at
the XP box, I see this:

[2004/12/06 10:41:19, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(219)
   check_ntlm_password:  Checking password for unmapped user []\[]@[KALI] 
with the new password interface[2004/12/06 10:41:19, 3] 
auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(222)
   check_ntlm_password:  mapped user is: [PANDORANET]\[]@[KALI]
