[Samba] Samba 3.0.24 + LDAP - User Lockout not working

[Axel Werner]

Hi Christian, thanks fer Answer.

Is yours an OFFICIAL Answer to this problem ?? I cannot find ANY 
documents telling about not used or not implemented functionality on 
user lockout or those ldap attributes neither. So its hard to believe 
that those things are "spare" or "unused" even after YEARS.

I found some realy old mailinglist postsing from 2004 with exactly the 
same problem. So it seems this isnt realy new stuff.

Whats going on here ?!

thanks fer help
regards Axel
