No telling what kind of odd bugs could be in ms services for unix, I was not at all impressed with what I saw of it at Linux world last Aug - It seemed to be mostly a broken toy...
My experience suggests that you'll have much better luck using samba for your unix-to-pc connectivity needs.
Just a thought,
