newbie question : FC to FC sharing via SAMBA

Hi All,
    I was using freenas for a NAS before but decided that the software 
RAID of FC would suit me more so I shifted to FC 7 with Samba share. The 
network is mostly windows based and just used workgroups with no domain 
controller. All windows machines have zero problems with the FC 7 NAS 
machine (read/write/access/etc). I recently installed a new FC8 machine 
and it can't authenticate versus the FC7 NAS Samba share and therefore 
cannot access it. The FC8 itself can create a share and have the windows 
boxes access that with zero problems. We put up another FC8 machine just 
to see if it could connect to the other FC8 machine and it can't too. 
Sorry but our interface is mostly gui based. We've been able to compile 
postgres and pgadmin and figure out some FC8 tweaking but we are really 
newbies. Trying to google this but the keywords escape us at the moment. 
Thanks in advance.


Regards
