If you use LDAP as a Single-Sgin-On Serivce, you should not have to 
create the user on the Linux box. Set up your nsswitch.conf and 
ldap.conf pointing to the machine running slapd. This can be done using 
YaST on the Client machine. Read the docs on openldap.org!

Windows is different. You have to set up the user on the client machine 
to connect e.g. Samba shares.
