It's a local policy setting on Windows XP/2003. It took me six
months and three newsgroup posts to resolve it when I first
tripped over it . . .

Run gpedit.msc and follow this path:
Computer configuration / Windows Settings / Security Settings /
Local Settings / Securit options / Network Access:
Sharing and Security model for local accounts:
Use "Classic" - local users authenticate as themselves.

Problem solved.
