Over here I have a dead tree copy of Samba-3 by Example
which says on in Chapter 6, paragraph 3.5
LDAP Initialization and Creation of User Group Accounts


   NOTE

    ... By placing all machine accounts  in the People
    container, we were able to side-step this bug.


So it seems the bug, that prevents samba from being able to search the LDAP
database for computer accounts if they are placed in the Computers
container, is gone.

My questions:

* the version with the bug, did they work with

        ldap suffix = dc=foobar,dc=biz
        ldap user suffix = ou=People
        ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers,ou=People

in smb.conf succesfull?


* In which version was the bug fixed?
