I have some experience with integrating LDAP and Samba with ClearOS (formerly called ClarkConnect) and SuSE Linux Enterprise Server. Both of those distos make it REALLY easy. ClearOS is perhaps the most streamlined and simple. The only problem is that it doesn't scale well past about 100 users, which is why we moved to SLES.
I could do an installation and setup demo but this would probably work best at a Linux Fest, since it would almost certainly take more than an hour to really go through and explain it all.
