The thing that does go wrong however is logging into the domain with a normal user account. This is not functioning. There can't be something wrong with the user configuration on the samba side, because I can use the username and -password combination on a win98 machine to login to the domain.
After a failed login from the winXP machine I examined the smb log file from that machine. There was no reference to the login name I used. The only reference was to 'smbguest' not being know on the machine. It looks like the logon procedure isn't comunicating with the smb-proces on the linux side as it should.
I now have found several references about tweaking the registry, policy and group-policy editors, mostly referring to encryption stuff. But nothing so far solved my problem.
Here you have my smb.conf file.

At the moment I am really starting to loose my hair out off frustration

You might try posting your smb.conf. It's probably smaller than that log trace.
My guess is the same as Ed's: you haven't created machine accounts for each of your 2000 or XP desktops. The documentation explains how to create these accounts, and how to join the PC to the domain before you attempt to log in using the domain accounts.
