Thanks Michel and Mike for your suggestions.  Here is what I've come up
with:

$ testparm | grep encrypt

	encrypt passwords = Yes
	update encrypted = No

Is this second option correct?  From what I can understand from the docs
it is right so long as I don't have very old clients, and all of my
clients are NT 4.0.

Also all of this should be irrelevant, I think, since I can't even
browse the server as the guest account (except from a UNIX box, it works
fine there) and that is what I think is a good first goal.  But I can't
figure out why I can connect from a UNIX box as guest with no password,
but not from an NT box.  I have tried enabling the guest account on the
NT box to no avail.
