How did you create the samba user?  First create a Linux user, assign that user a password, then create a samba user with the same name and password by doing "smbpasswd -a <user>".  Are there any capital letters in the username?  That's caused problems for me before.  Do you have encrypted passwords disabled on the client and not on the server?  You may need to add a static route on the samba server like this:
 
route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev eth0
 
Check your logs or try using tail -f to watch your smb and nmb logs while the user tries to connect.  Those are just some ideas.  Hope they help.
 

Sincerely,
