cannot connect to server

hi,

our samba shares were working previously, and then i had to reinstall the operating system (mac 10.4).  now, i am not able to connect and get the following error:

"Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not correct."

however, i am using the same name and password that connect successfully on another machine.


were there some settings that may have been wiped out with the reinstall?  the smb.conf file has not changed, and the firewall is off.

thanks for your help!

if you were using windows, it sounds like a machine account problem
(delete and re-create and rejoin the domain), but I don't know anything
about macs
