I changed SAMBA_MOUNT_SHARE_PROTOCOL="both" and still the client's  
options file has the following:
nx/ 
nx 
,cookie 
= 
b7efa66ce2a7029c346a6277e6851cf9 
,samba 
= 
139 
,encryption 
= 
1 
,session 
=session,id=mannose-1000-72F7169A7E9EEC69FC7AF5B1B339742E,display=: 
0:1000

Please note the samba=139 here. Does that mean the client is setting  
up the proxy for 139 instead of 445?

Printing is still not working through NX. In the server, I am getting

prakash at mannose:~> /usr/local/samba/bin/smpspool "smb://user:password@127.0.0.1:4000/HPBW 
" "" "" "job" 1 "" .kde/share/config/startupconfig
Receiving SMB: Server stopped responding
ERROR: Tree connect failed (Call returned zero bytest (EOF))
ERROR: Unable to connect to CIFS host, will retry in 60 seconds ...

And on the WinXP client, I see
