On the same machine, same usernames?

If not what happens if you give it the ip address of the other machine..

If connected to the "outside world" bad idea
but it necessarily does not have to be the firewall..
( Have come accross weird problems between M$ releases and or service 
packs, firewall and antivirus products )

Well at least I can confirm that smb printing is working correctly to 
our printers server and AD.
Things get authenticated correctly and get printed.

And from the looks of it you last comment on the bug report it seems 
that samba is working..

So I suggest M$ being the culprit in these matters... ( things being 
blocked dropped or not allowed )

Best regard
