Thanks for taking a look to my issue and think with me for a solution. I have a samba server on a subnet 172.23.3.55/23 (2.0 --> 3.255) and within that subnet I can access the server no problem. Also the 172.23.4.0/23 subnet that lives on the same Core Switch can access the server no problem. Even our Office Subnet 129.228.114.0/23 can access the system through the firewall with no issue. But when I connect to our VPN network, 172.23.45.0/24 or when I come from a different office with totally different ranges I cannot access the server. The server responds, and I need to login, but the login is rejected always.
Here is my [global] and [share] section of the smb.conf
workgroup = localdomain.nmc
netbios name = AMS-QTGW02
server string = %h server (Samba %v)
# hosts allow = 172.23.202.0/24 172.23.45.0/24 129.228.114.0/23

As you can see I outhashed the line "hosts allow" so that all IP's can access them, later when all is working I would like to limit access through that (or "hosts deny").
The credentials are checked already multiple times, and they are enterred correctly. I red something about samba-winbond for non-domain servers to be disabled, but I did not install it, is there a setting I don't know about that I mis or should use?
In the log file of this session I have this:

Thanks a lot people.
edit: added the log section.
