NTLMv2 hit and miss

I connect to shares on a Win 2003 box and an Ubuntu samba server with NTLMv2. But shares on a Win XP sp3 box and a Win 7 sp1 VM will only connect if I use sec=ntlm. Matching the settings on the problem machines to the 2k3 box (local security policy and a running NTLM-related service) had no effect. I spent hours googling yesterday, the only solution I found to NTLMv2 connection problems was... use NTLMv1.

Does anyone have shares on XP or 7 connected with NTLMv2? If so, do you remember if you had to modify anything to get it working?
