Samba - ldap

I am trying to get the samba-ldap PDC going on rh9
I have followed the instructions per -
http://www.vcs.u52.k12.me.us/LDAP/The_SAMBA-LDAP_How-to.html
And I am using the idealx smbldap tools.
I have one problem and I think it is the nss_ldap or pam_ldap.  I can create
a user in the ldap with the smbldap_tools but I cannot log into the RH box
or ssh in to it as this new user.
The following message shows up in /var/log/messages

Feb 20 17:51:39 localhost gdm(pam_unix)[16883]: check pass; user unknown
Feb 20 17:51:39 localhost gdm(pam_unix)[16883]: authentication failure;
logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser=
gdm rhost=localhost
Feb 20 17:51:39 localhost gdm(pam_unix)[16883]: could not identify user
(from getpwnam(testuser2))
Feb 20 17:51:39 localhost gdm-binary[16883]: Couldn't set acct. mgmt for
testuser2

Can anyone help me here?

Thanks
Doug
