samba - Jun 2006 - win2003 Permission Denied

Listed and answered on many email lists and tech sites but not a single
one seems to correct the problem I have encountered.

I'm not used to dealing much with samba so please help me understand
what is going on here.

I want to mount a share from a win 2003 server. On our old 2.4.21 EL
kernel I could mount the share but got "stale file handle" messages.
Research told me that was because of some buggy issues in the smb client
parts of 2.4. So I bit the bullet and updated the server to the recent
RH 2.6.16.20 kernel. smbd is version 3.0.6-2.3E and I assume that means
all the client pieces are as well. After installing the 2.6 kernel I
mount the share and try to list files and I get ls: .: Permission
Denied. 

When I look for THAT error message in groups and posts there's all KINDS
of confusing information. So I assume this is the group to ask these
questions. 

1. Is this something I'm doing wrong?

2. If not how do I get access to the win2003 share so I can 'cp' files
to the RH 2.6 server?

Wits end here so any tips or advice greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure about this but as you don't use the latest version of  
samba maybe there isn't support for digitally signed communication.

Always test with latest samba version first.

Cheers,
Henrik
