I just upgraded from samba 2.2.8 to Samba 3.0.  The upgrade coincided with upgrading from UnixWare 7.1.1 to 7.1.4.  I can map a network drive just fine with 2.2.8 but cannot with 3.0.  I try to enter the user1 id and password and it just rejects it each time.  

Here is my smb.conf file:

#============================Global Settings =================================
[global]
   workgroup = MYGROUP
   local master = no
   browseable = yes
   printcap name = lpstat
   load printers = yes
   printing = sysv
   deadtime = 5
   guest account = user1
   log file = /usr/lib/samba/var/log.%m
   max log size = 10
   security = user
   encrypt passwords = yes
   smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY

#============================ Share Definitions ==============================
[pp_forms]
   comment = Maestro Docs
   path = /state
   read only = no
   guest = yes
   guest only = yes

[printers]
   path = /var/spool/samba
   browseable = no
   writable = no
   printable = yes
   print command = /usr/bin/lp -c -d%p %s; rm %s

[user1]
   comment = USER1 Share
   path = /ws/wp5_10_root/usr/users/pplus
   browsable = no
   writable = yes
   force user = user1
   public = yes

[ws_dir]
   comment = WSDIR Share
   path = /ws/wp5_10_root
   browsable = no
   writable = yes
   force user = user1
   public = yes
