These should be on automatically, if your system has such support, but
it doesn't harm to add them as well.

In my case, ldap support was dropped by the automatic installation software. Thus,
the problem was not really samba related, but rather a bug in Gentoo Linux distribution,
or at least, there is need for additional installation notes.


still other problems like having to set /home permissions to 1777 since
PAM is apparently not run
as root and cannot create home directories, if /home is not world
writable. I don't actually like this,

Is this with SSH? This is an OpenSSH bug/feature. This pam module

No, but with samba-3.0.2a. That is, winbindd can't create homedirs, unless /home
has been set to 1777 -mode (or subdirs in /home, if domain (%D) is being used as an additional
level in template directory). Apparently, samba runs the pam-module pam_mkhomedir.so
without root-permissions and creates the directory as the owner:group itself.
