That's not good! You have verified that smbd and nmbd are running? Not
sure that would cause that error but it is the first thing I would look
for.
Check it using system-config-services and make sure smb is actually
started. (or you can run ps -eaf |grep mbd) You can also check this in
swat.
There needs to be smbd and nmbd running.

I found that if you did not run the smbpasswd -a username command that
adding users via swat really does not work. Not sure if that was
something in my environment or not.

Might be because samba is not really running.

Not sure why you have this lanman auth = No. may want to pull this out.

The only other thing you may want to add is a wins server entry if you
have one on your LAN. If not then it should not be needed.
