Samba login error on my win 2k box. HELP?

I just installed samba 2.2.2 in the hopes of being able to connect my os x box to my nasty win 2k box that I have to use to vpn into work. I just need to fileshare to an external drive attached to the g4 so I can use the 2k box to make divx's of some m2a & m2v files from my tivo.

The problem I'm having is I can see the g4 in the network neighborhood on the 2k box, but when I try to open the g4 I get this error "there are currently no logon servers available to process your request"

What gives?

I used ssct 2.1 to configure samba, and have tried multiple configurations in the hopes of getting this to work.

Any help would be totally appreciated!

I've never had that specific error. But there are a couple of things I've had to struggle with on the old Samba front, and eventually I got it to work.

For starters do you have encrypted passwords enabled with SCCT? W2K requires that.

That's the most common problem. Once you do that you'll have to add users to Samba, somehwere around here I wrote in another thread how to do that... let me find it.
