Well, after a few try (thanks to vm snapshots ;-) I understood that
the problem is that ldap+samba configuration
sometimes "crash" with lam auto-configuration.

Now I am trying to find the right "sequence" to let everything mix in
the right way. I mean, for example the fact
that lam, at first visit, build for you ou like people, group and
machines. After that, following samba config "how to"s
conflict.

When I will find the right sequence I will post my personal how to for
"newbies", like I am.
