samba share wont accept win2k3 connections

[f0rmat]

I have multiple windows 2003 boxes that I can not connect to a samba share. I can connect to the same shares using windows 2000, and the windows 2003 box can connect to a share on windows xp(all using net use and net view) I cannot however do a net view \\linuxserver
I get a "System error 50 has occured, The request is not supported."

I realize this is more of a windows question, than a linux one, but I was wondering if anyone else has ever come across this and might have any suggestions?

Are you sure samba is working? Both nmbd and smbd are running? The nmbd handles the name resolution for M$ boxes. I've have a Windows 2003 server that can do what you describe. No DC's just a Samba WINS server and it is working. If you're in a "Domain Controlled" environment make sure your Samba servers are members.

Have Fun!

I'm definately sure samba is working on the linux box, because I can get to it fine from any windows 2000 box, any windows XP box, it's only win2k3 I have the issue with. We are in a domain controlled environment, but even if the DC's were the issues, wouldn't that prevent the win2k and winxp domain members from seeing it as well?

some more info on this. Both nmbd and smbd are running. Samba version is [root@buildlog samba]# smbd -V
Version 3.0.10-1.4E.2

and I believe it's an actual issue with this particular linux box hosting samba. From my two win2k3 boxes I can do a net view \\maven and get a perfectly fine response, but when I do a net view \\buildlog it craps out. So oddly, this behaviour is specific to windows 2003 and buildlog... only. Windows 2000 and Windows XP work fine on either machine
