[Samba] Prints ok, but says "Access denied, unable to connect". win2k and samba 2.2.1a

[Gordon Russell]

Members of the "Domain Admin Group" will not have this issue. You may or

priveledges. If its a small install of responsible users, it may not 
matter.  see man smb.conf "domain admin group =".
