[Samba] In need of some help - Samba on a NIS Client server

I have a situation that a Client needs SMB access on several servers that 
do not have users listed in the password file as they are using NIS for 
Unix Authentication.  I have looked at the manuals and have not found a 
manor that will authenticate against NIS.  Am I missing something?

         Can anyone suggest how to get around this obstacle?

Thanks In Advance
