That is a great tool and I use it as my main administration tool for my samba accounts, however this usage would depend on how many users are in the ldap. I mean don't you have to add the samba accounts one by one for each user? If there are more than 20 users in the ldap this will be a lot of work.. I could be wrong about that I have already had my samba accounts in my ldap before I started using lam. I do use it to add new users, but that is one at a time anyways and also for me new users are generally less than 1 per month on average...
