In your situation, you can't modify the users' entries in LDAP to add the samba information either I would guess.
correct.
For this type of a situation, use either the password file (is the option smbpasswd?) or tdbsam. You don't need to specify that ldap is involved at all.
no. i want the users authenticate against the central ldap and not a local database/file. i don't want to maintain the username and passwords myself; this information is already available in the ldap and many other systems/programs rely on these informations in the ldap (almost single-sign-on). why do this twice?
