A friend had trouble with logging into his samba server after a samba 
upgrade, and it turned out that the windows box had to be rebooted 
because of a change in configuration between the two samba releases and 
the windows box caching something between mounts of the share.

So, as for all things windows, have you tried rebooting (the windows 
box)? :-)
