As stated in smb.conf(5), the parameter 'workgroup' is also used to
specify the Windows/Samba domain name, so you should put it there.
Is your domain name really WORKGROUP? Try changing it to
PULLTHEOTHERONE ;)

I'm a bit rusty on this Samba thing, and had experience only with pre-3
versions, but did you remember to add the Windows machine to the
domain? In order to do that, IIRC, you have to enter root's credentials,
and so your 'invalid users' line looks suspicious...

HTH,
