You havn't specified to use encrypt passwords required by XP (I'm
assuming modern Win.)
or security level in globals
security = user (or share)
encrypt passwords = yes
Have you done the "signorseal" registry hack if the PC's are XP,
smbpasswd -a "username" to add to your samba users, you will bw
prompted for pw(s)
