SSPI uses windows authentication and therefore your users must be known by the CVSNT server. Add the users as local users and set the passwords to match and you will be fine. BTW, this is exactly like you would have been forced to do if you used a Windows Workgroup PC as a file server and the other PC users wanted to connect to the server shares (runnong NTFS as file system of course and with "simple file sharing" disabled).
