cannot do this - the functionality that does this is provided by an

is "contrib" and not "officially supported".

I know that Endi did the work to make 389 be a viable back end for
Samba and it passed all the Samba torture tests so I am not sure I
agree with you.

Was that for samba4 or samba3?

It was for Samba 4, but that was done a while ago. I'm not sure the current status of the code. It worked up to some point, but it's no longer maintained due to lack of OpenLDAP experts to make further modification since this involves Samba code that are shared between both backends.
