Sambatest Authentication Failures - Samba 2.2.8a

I've just installed Samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 2.8. We're using a NT password
server to authenticate username/password. Our NT guru's are complaining
that there're seeing several authentication failures events with an account
called "sambatest" which is not a valid userid on our site. It looks like
some type of polling that Samba is doing.

This is part of the errors they are seeing:

Logon Failure:
        Reason: Unknown user name or bad password
        User Name: sambatestHOSTNAME
        Domain: OURDOMAIN

In my smb.conf file I'm using:

security = SERVER

How can we stop these errors from occurring?
