It's a Win32 app that connects fine and can add objects using a GUI and default mechanism (easy addition/deletion/modification) and can set Samba/Posix passwords at the same time. With new releases you can create XML based templates that integrate fully into the interface. This enables you to add extra attributes you may need in addition to LDAPAdmins default set when adding/modifying an object (a user for instance). The one pain at the moment is that it doesn't use groupofuniquenames/uniqueMember for groups (uses posixGroup/uid) so I have to add that bit manually (has a manual edit function too) if required rather than doing it automagically using the GUI. However the developer is very quick and on the ball, so after explaining this to him, hes adding that functionality in the next release.
