smbadduser problems

I'm setting up a Samba server that is mainly going to be a public access
for the folks here in the office. I don't need ultra security, but a
little would be nice. To do this, I thought that I would create one
user under RH 7.2 and then use smbadduser to create "aliases" for other
users through smbadduser.
Take this for example
I created a user called network with asdfer as the password in Linux.
I'd like all passwords to be asdfer
I need for the user fsmith to have access
so I did the command
smbadduser network:fsmith
asdfer
asdfer
When I went to log into Samba it rejected fsmith and allowed me to log
in as network. I then created an account under Linux for fsmith and
tried logging in, which I sold not do as their is no smbusers entry for
fsmith. What do I need to do to accomplish this?
Thanks,
James
