After doing your plot command, type
par()$usr
This will give you the x and y axis ranges. Make sure that the "at"
values you give are within the x-axis range.

My x axis is a series of daily dates (e.g., 01/01/2000, 01/02/2000,
etc.) from 2000 to end of 2008. The default only gives me 4 ticks. I
want more. Why doesn't this work?
sdate<-as.POSIXct(strptime(date,format="%m/%d/%Y"))
plot(ppt~sdate,type="l",ylim=c(0,47),col=1,lwd=1,pch=16,ylab="Salinity,

year.text=c("2001","2002","2003","2004", "2005", "2006", "2007","2008",
"2009")
