Here, I'm using qmail-ldap, and I have squid (using group_ldap_auth) and
apache (using auth_ldap) authenticating from the same database. and I'm
using web2ldap (www.web2ldap.de) to administer the directory through a web
interface. I modified the web2ldap files a little so that it has decent
descriptions of what fields are needed to control what in the ldap
directory as well.. it's all working quite well.. I'm not using SAMBA
though so I don't know if you can connect that with the ldap server, but
you may be able to through a ldap module for pam if it doesn't support it?
