are you using nss_ldap and pam_ldap? are you using authconfig?? I had 
the same pb and found the solution in the "SAmba-LDAP-PDC howto" of 
IDEALX (samba.idealx.com)
If you're in the same configuration than I am, you have to change a line 
in /etc/pam.d/system-auth:

replace:

account     required      /lib/security/pam_unix.so
account     required      /lib/security/pam_ldap.so

by:
account     required      /lib/security/pam_unix.so
account     sufficient    /lib/security/pam_ldap.so

 Hope it can help.
