You are trying with the Administrator account and this doesn't exist, so 
you need to map this to the 'root' user. Add this to smb.conf:

     username map = /etc/samba/user.map

and then create /etc/samba/user.map with this content:

!root = DOMAIN\Administrator DOMAIN\administrator Administrator 
administrator

Restart Samba and try again.
