I would suggest to add "passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://youlocation.com" 
to your smb.conf. If you don't have "passdb backend" then your server 
will be a combination of "ldap server" and "ldap port" parameters 
constructed into correct url which is passed as the location you've 
mentioned in your post.
