No, that's different.  Sign and Seal is an encryption thing that XP
requires by default, but current versions of Samba don't support
properly.  You need to make a registry change on the XP box.  I just did
the same thing on mine.  I don't remember the exact key, but it's not
hard to find in the Samba.org site.
