Samba: Protocol negotiation failed

After an upgrade my samba is broken on remote clients. I cant mount any 
longer. Does somebody has an idea whats wrong?

the line in /etc/fstab is (in one line):
//192.168.1.1/jensens /home/jensens/AHOME smbfs 
uid=jensens,gid=users,dmask=700,fmask=700,workgroup=JENSQUADRAT,credentials=/etc/samba/fideris.pw 
0 0

and the mount produces:
  jensens at jqm:~$ sudo mount /home/jensens/AHOME/
  Password:
  12978: protocol negotiation failed
  SMB connection failed

while my smb.conf on the server is the following:
[global]
         workgroup = JENSQUADRAT
         interfaces = eth1, 127.0.0.1
         bind interfaces only = Yes
         map to guest = Bad User
         passdb backend = smbpasswd
         keepalive = 30
         wins support = Yes
         kernel oplocks = No
         hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0

[homes]
         comment = Users home
         path = %H/SAMBA
         read only = No
         create mask = 0775
         force create mode = 0775
         force directory mode = 0775
         browseable = No

The 'funny' part is, its possible to mount the home on the samba-server 
itself to a directory of my choice. I added the same line to /etc/fstab 
and did the mount. Only remote it is not possible. btw.: remote ip is 
192.168.1.10, all firewalls are down (for testing purposes).

It worked before one of the last apt-get dist-upgrade i did, but 
unfortunally i cant remeber when it broke.

kind regards
