I am a little confused at what you are looking for. I mean does this
one account already exist in the PDC (samba side not unix)? Can every
user have the password and username for this account?

You need to create a samba user account on stant05 for this user.
Are you using ldap?

Is there any reason why you can not have your CentOS box be its own
password server? I mean you create the samba users on that box
instead.

Get rid of the password server line and then uncomment the passdb
backend line in your smb.conf file. Then you need to add the user on
the samba server depending on how you have you linux accounts setup
you may only need to do the smbpasswd step to add the user.
