Password shouldn't be a problem, just because windows is logging in
automatically doesn't mean there is no password. Most likely it's
logging in as Administrator with whatever the admin password was when
the OS was installed. Windows passes that logon information to any
server you try to connect to (at least it is supposed to). This
according to Micro$oft makes it easier for the LUSER to work on a
network.
I've also had problems with Samba doing that, but it's normally not to
severe.
>From what I know, you need to have a user account to correspond to the
windows user your running under be is administrator or whatever.
Hope that is a bit of help.

Subject: [SLUG] Samba vs XP
Has anyone ever encountered XP locking up when connecting to a samba
server?
I have one machine that hangs. Could be related that no password prompt
is
being presented to the user at boot time. I am told by my windows
friends
that there is an option that can be set to present this dialog. Any
ideas?
Is there another list that is specific to linux/samba-windows issues?
Is there a way to see what lists are available on the list server?
