[Samba] User Logon Problem

I have a Samba 3.0 PDC talking to an LDAP server, but I can't get a user 
to log in on a Windows 2000 client.  I see this in the log file:

[2003/11/07 11:37:20, 1] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_sam(818)
   User tester in passdb, but getpwnam() fails!
[2003/11/07 11:37:20, 0] auth/auth_sam.c:check_sam_security(459)
   check_sam_security: make_server_info_sam() failed with 
'NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER'

So the user is found in the LDAP database, but there's obviously 
something else that needs to be done.  I checked the web, but the only 
case where this was mentioned didn't provide much information.  How do I 
solve this problem?
