The plot thickens.  I set selinux to permissive, and was able to log in from
the windows VM.  Next, I set up a new CentOS5.2 VM, and got samba going on
it.  Then I updated everything but the samba and selinux policy packages and
everything still worked.  Finally, I added the samba and selinux packages,
and everything worked as it should.  I have no idea what set of
circumstances led to the original failure.  I guess I'll just have to
reinstall Centos on the real iron.
