[Samba] How to add users to samba 3.0

[lovswr1]

Hello.  I can not add any users to my samba 3.0 server, either via SWAT
or manually.  Keep getting something about the SAM_ACCOUNT is not/will
not initialize.  Did a little googling & it seems this is related to
PAM.  I do have PAM on my redhat 9 box but /etc/pam.conf is blank.  If
someone could offer a solution or point me in the right direction it
would be greatly appreciated.
