Redhat 4.2 uses pam, so you don't need shadow password support. In
/etc/pam.d/ create a file named samba with the following content:

auth       required     /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow nullok
account    required     /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so

If you append the following to /etc/pam.d/other you will get better error
messages in the message log:

auth     required       /lib/security/pam_warn.so

Make sure you selected pam in the makefile.
