It's because they connected earlier?

Try this:
- stop Samba
- remove all Samba logs
- start Samba

You will see that each new log starts with IP first, then machinename.

It's a limitation and message coming from Windows. Google for it.

Basically, you can't connect from a Windows machine more than once, and 
use different credentials (more or less).

This means: probably you have some other script or program that uses 
network shares, and starts before WPKG (or WPKG starts scripts which 
mount shares using different credentials etc.?).
