Erik,
This is my smb.conf.  I have about 50 different systems on it right now. 
 Most Winnt4.0, but several 2000, 98, 95, and linux boxen.  I haven't 
had any problems at all.

   workgroup = MYGROUP
   server string = Samba Server
   load printers = yes
   log file = /var/log/samba.%m
   max log size = 50
   security = user
   encrypt passwords = yes
   ssl CA certDir = /etc/ssl/certs
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY
   dns proxy = no

#============================ Share Definitions

 path = /share
 writable = yes
 guest ok = no
