I'm using 3.0.22-r3.  I tend to use stable for the most part, except a
few packages here and there.

Anyway, here are some errors that I get in /var/log/samba/smbd.log
when the service is (re)started:

  Connection to LDAP server failed for the 14 try!
[2006/07/29 19:31:46, 0] passdb/secrets.c:fetch_ldap_pw(629)
  fetch_ldap_pw: neither ldap secret retrieved!
[2006/07/29 19:31:46, 0] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_connect_system(851)
  ldap_connect_system: Failed to retrieve password from secrets.tdb

  Connection to LDAP server failed for the 15 try!
[2006/07/29 19:31:47, 0] passdb/secrets.c:fetch_ldap_pw(629)
  fetch_ldap_pw: neither ldap secret retrieved!

  ldapsam_search_one_group: Problem during the LDAP search: LDAP
error: (unknown) (Time limit exceeded)


...So this is how I know samba is looking for an LDAP server (which I
don't want it to do).
