I'm still going to stick to trying to get Samba3 and try and get
openldap to work. I've got it going in my test environment with a
clean install of samba and openldap. I'm currently making the
modifications to a dev. version of the production ldap database to see
if I can get it working with Samba3. I'm not worried about Active
Directory, openldap works with our environment. Thanks for the
suggestions!
