samba - Jun 2007 - vista and samba 2.2.8?

I run a 2.2.8-samba as fileserver and PDC for a small network with NT4- and 
XP-clients.

Now I've got a vista-machine and want to access shares on the server (not 
joining the domain), but whatever I try: vista tells me all the time that the 
login is incorrect.

I tried all the usual combinations like server\username, username, 
\\server\username ...

Is there a general problem with vista and old sambas or do just I have a funny 
problem here?

upgrading to a recent 3.x-version is not an option at the moment.

thnx,
peter

Very likely upgrading to Vista is not an option then either.

I'd play with NTLMv2 settings in your Vista clients, maybe
it's possible to downgrade it so that it does not demand it.
