samba - May 2001 - security level problem

I'm desperately trying to configure my Samba server under Linux. When
I'm
in the security level = SHARE everything runs smoothly. But when I switch 
to the security level = USER and I try to connect from my PC I get the 
following Windows box: Resources  MYSERVER\ICP$ asking me for the password. 
Every password I'm trying is wrong.
The same applies when I'm trying to connect via net view or net use from 
DOS. I get an error with: Incorrect network password.
I checked 10 times my smb.conf file but everything seems to be all right. 
My smbpasswd file is also OK. When performing Samba diagnosis on the step 3 
(smbclient L MYSERVER) I get: session request to MYSERVER failed (Not 
listening for calling name). I checked hosts allow but I have the 127. for 
the server itself. Also the IP number, broadcast and netmask are correct 
when I check it with smblookup.

	Could somebody help me to resolve this problem: How to connect to the 
server from the PC in the security level = USER mode????
	Thanks in advance.

Check the Samba log file to see what errors are occurring. If there's
nothing there, increase the log level, try a few more times and check
the log file again.
Any time I've had problems, the log file has literally told me exactly
what was wrong.

Need more information.  What version of Samba?  What version of Windows?
Send us your smb.conf so we can check it.
