You've looked at smb.conf, haven't you? Look at the smb.conf particularly
search for "unix password sync = Yes" and related. Then man smb.conf...
BTW I hope you know most of today apps accept pam for auth so you can use
winbind for this. E.g. you can auth say a Courier IMAP user using ONLY
samba. Man winbindd f you're going in this direction.
