what's about the different LAN Manager authentication level? Nat.exe
use the cygwin.dll (http://www.cygwin.com/) and not the Windows own LAN
Manager authentication.
So have a look at the authentication level:

Windows NT (Q147706):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\LSA\LMcompatibilityLevel
(REG_DWORD)
Level 0 - Send LM response and NTLM response; never use NTLMv2 session
Level 1 - Use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated
Level 2 - Send NTLM authenication only
... (default 0)

Windows 2000 (see GroupPolicy: LAN Manager Authentication Level)

Alternatively use a linux box and smbclient ... or cygwin or ...

ciao, Tom
