[Samba] samba long NT usernames with Tru64

Hi all,

samba v2.2.7 (prebuilt binaries)
Tru64 v5.1A PK0006
Windows NT4 server SP6a - 192.168.44.4
Client PC, W2000PRO  - 192.168.46.12

I have a problem with authenticating users with usernames longer than 8
characters.  (Usernames within 8 characters are not a problem).
Security is set to SERVER, and the server name is "misexact",  which does
resolve when I ping name from the Unix box.

I am testing with a Windows account called "shaunlongname", and have
created a user account on Unix called "slname".

Can anyone suggest what might be wrong and where to look?

Content of smbusers;
root = administrator admin Administrator
nobody = guest
slname = shaunlongname

smbpasswd is a zero length file (all users to be authenticated by windows
domain controller )

Logfile (set to level 2  -  my annotations in /* -- */ style)
