makes sense...I remember when David Trask was pounding the samba list
with a million questions and all I could think of was here was an
attempt to build a turnkey LDAP setup that operated from only a
particular view whose opinions I didn't wholeheartedly endorse so it's
not surprising to find that it has languished and broken in so short of
a time.

My recommendation is that if you are looking for an opinionated turnkey
LDAP authentication system, you use Windows Active Directory.

The alternative is to actually learn how LDAP works and then you can do
anything you want with it.
