This additional variable is unnecessary, the check should simply modify
the default for the 'GENERATE_SMBPASSWD' variable if anything.

Also, I don't agree that it's correct to assume "users in LDAP" implies
"samba in LDAP".  Even if it does, the samba package won't read from
LDAP out of the box, it will require additional configuration after
installation - so I don't think it's unreasonable to continue to
populate passdb.tdb by default.

And normally, 'getent passwd' will not enumerate users from LDAP.  It's
strange that it does in your case.
