I have:

*389 Directory Server (v1.2) with about 100+ current and active users.
*Separate SAMBA server that I would like to use LDAP credentials to 
authenticate with.

Found guides for using LDAP credentials with SAMBA here:
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:Samba
http://sangacollins.wordpress.com/posts/directory-server/



What I have been able to do:

Added the samba schema information (61samba.ldif) into my 389 directory server.

Used the configure.pl script to configure smbldap-tools for my 389 Directory 
server.

Ran smbldap-populate to add the basic Windows user setup for SAMBA. 


Issues:

It seems that all of the SAMBA/LDAP guides expect SAMBA and LDAP to be on the 
same server.

Don't really understand how I am supposed to add the SAMBA schema information 
to my current LDAP users so they can be authenticated via SAMBA.

One of the guides says alot about enabling winbind and authconfig. Don't know 
if this is needed.


Questions:

Is there any up to date documentation for using 389 Directory Server as an LDAP 
Authentication Backend for SAMBA?

Is there a process (read. I unfortunately can't just delete/add user accounts 
with SAMBA info) for adding SAMBA information into my existing LDAP accounts?

Do I need to do anything using authconfig?
