Thanks for posting the config file but comparing it to mine I see
nothing wrong. I am going to do a clean install of the server and start

Nope - mine was a clean install.  In the morning I'll do a compare with
my settings, but I use a very simplified [global] as recommended for my
situation in Samba 3 by Example, so many of those settings will not be
there. With any luck I might find one that helps.

Have you both made sure that your xp clients aren't using simple file
sharing? That disables credential passing and instead passes guest with no
password.

I haven't even tried an XP connection since I installed CentOS, but I'll check that out when I do. Meanwhile, getting it to work correctly for the linux boxes is more important.

Why use samba to share anything for linux boxes?
You can share the same directory structure with nfs for the linux boxes and have much less trouble.

It seems like a kludge to use cifs to share between two linux boxes.
