Darren �rta: | I am a relative new user of samba (well not to new), but I would like to | authenticate samba through ldap, and ldap only. I don;t want to have to | manage the /etc/passwd file aswell.

As a Mandrake-Linux sysadmin I did it following:
http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/docs/ldap-auth2.php http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/docs/samba-pdc.php http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/docs/samba-ldap-advanced.php
without any problem. The documents however aren't extremly Mandrake specific. With relatively small modifications they could be aplied to samba3/other Unices. For the diferences I would suggest to read the Samba HOWTO collection, and your systems documentation about nss and pam.
Best Regards.
