Don't really see why Redhat don't build samba with ldap support built in... it's hardly experimental any more...
Probably because if you do so, then samba *requires* LDAP. This introduces a massive overhead in the initial setup of Samba.
I use samba and LDAP myself, but I wouldn't distribute it that way until/unless the whole OS use LDAP for everything (as Mac OS X does).
And yeah, I think I'd like to see a GNU OS that used LDAP for everything that wasn't necessary for single-user mode (password file has root, daemon, etc, but not mysql or postgres, or any of the user accounts). It would be *damn* nice for large-scale networks.
