What version of samba? Also, are you logged in as the domain user or the local administrator? Try logging in as the local administrator, and add your domain account then.

Try to add a single domain user account, not the domain users group, tell me if this works.

Hi,
I had this similar problem, in the first place check for the computer name in win2k. In case if you have alphanumeric as computer name, I dought it will not work. Try with a flat name eg: server as the computer name restart the system.
Try to connect to the samba share and give a try ....
Please revert back
Thanks
