Not sure if you have a real domain or just a server, but have you added the Windows XP users to the Linux box via smbpasswd -a myname ? See if you have the entire samba docs in /usr/share/doc/samba-xxxx/.

you might want to try explaining that a little better?

what domain are you talking about? Do you have ...
a samba PDC domain?
a Linux NIS domain?
a Linux LDAP Domain?
a Windows Active directory Domain?
