I am pretty keen to resolve this, and can provide debug logs, etc
as required.

I have worked through "The Samba Checklist" in the Reference Guide.

I can also connect using smbclient from the server and from another
server running samba 2.2.8.

Moving to a Windows command line I get the following results.
