samba - Feb 2002 - Samba on 2.8 solaris with Win 2000

I need to mount the unix file system to Windows. Installed samba and made
changes to config file smb.config
There's a problem when I map the drive. Its gives me a err msg "
Incorrect
password or unknown user name for IPAddress\workgroup"
The config file

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: REDHAT4
   workgroup = JPROBE30

# homedir = NT - Mapped drive, eg:%H
   homedir map = %H

[JPROBE30]

;  comment = User Shashi Stuff
   path = /clocal/www/user/shashi/snapshots
   public = yes
   readonly = No
   writable = yes
   create mode = 777
   default case = lower
   preserve case = No
   directory mask = 755
   force group = JPROBE30
   map system = yes

When looked into logs under samba\var\log.shashi

I have added the user on the solaris box
useradd -d /dev/null -c {machine-name} -s /bin/false {machine-name}
passwd -l {machine-name}
 machine name - shashi

Please help.

TIA
