Correct permissions on the server?

When I add a new user (under computer management) to the WSS SP2/Win2k3
server it defaults to adding the User group for each person. When I add this
person to the SharePoint site they are suppose to have access too, and I get
no errors during this and the user gets the email, they are prompted to
login after clicking on the link. Regardless of what they type in it fails.

I'm using the same login/password that the user uses to login on their
machine to create the account on the WSS server. In fact, I can go through
the network to the server's shared directory's without being asked for a
login/password from this users PC.

All security settings for the server and WSS are at the default install
level, nothing has been changed.

When the user group is Users, they get prompted to login, which fails
everytime.

I change the user's group to Administrator, and they are allowed in with
full access and no prompts.

So, what group permission do I need to use on the server for each user so I
can use the SharePoint user roles correctly (reader/contributor/web/admin)?

Thanks!
Tyson
