can't connect to samba shares from 'doze

[Tom Cook <tom.cook@adelaide.edu.au>]

Hi all,

I am running samba 2.0.8 on a potato system.  I have samba shares set up
on my linux machine, and from another linux machine 'smbclient -L pinky'
reports this:

Domain=[NEW] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.8]

	Sharename      Type      Comment
	---------      ----      -------
	homes          Disk      Home Directories
	printers       Printer   All Printers
	IPC$           IPC       IPC Service (pinky server (Samba 2.0.8))
	lp             Printer   Generic dot-matrix printer entry
	tkcook         Disk      Home Directories

	Server               Comment
	---------            -------
	PINKY                pinky server (Samba 2.0.8)

	Workgroup            Master
	---------            -------
	NEW                  

So, so far as I can see, the smbd configuration is good.  But when I
attempt to connect from a windoze box, so my users can see their UNIX
home dirs, I get problems.  When I try to list available shares I get an
authentication failure, and I keep on getting it no matter what username
and password I put in, except guest, which gives the error 'account
currently disabled'.  I have done nothing to disable this account, and I
can see no line in the smb.conf file that might disable it.  Has anyone
come across this before?
