So it seems we've found the problem - just in case someone else encounters it. We had previously joined the Server with net ads join, and the attributes were still present in active directory, and the vista client tryed to force a kerberos blob on the samba server - which was promptly ignored/rejected. The solution was deleting the AD entry for the server and re-joining.
