[Samba] Samba, LDAP und TLS

Hi List ;-)
I consider my question to be rather simple one ... nevertheless I could not 
find an answer to it up to now.
I have an OpenLDAP-server which is the user-db for an samba3-server. I want to 
use TLS for secure communication, so I created a ca for this as well as 
keys/certificates for my LDAP and samba-server. Informing the LDAP-server 
about its certificate/key is easy ... but how do I let samba know about its 
key and certificate? As far as I can see, samba doesn't use the 
client-configuration in ldap.conf and therefore cannot know about the 
key/cert defined there.
So the question is: Is samba capable of talking to the LDAP-server using a 
client-certificate?
Hope somebody knows the answer since I am currently runnig out of ideas ;-)

Thilo
