Showing my ignorance here but what is your AAA server based on please, LDAP, Active Directory, kerberos or what?

You will most likely have to add your AAA service to the passwd and group lines in /etc/nsswitch.conf and add entries into /etc/pam.conf for each section and install pam libraries if they are not already present for your authentication service.
