You suggestion are possible...
The account data are exported from IDM. (smbpasswd, not ldap)
We have the problem since the update redhat (3.0.10)  -> centos (3.3.12)


- System old
  - windomainlogon:     o.k.
  - smbclient:          o.k.

  $ cat /etc/redhat-release
  Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 2)

  # grep "smbd version" log.smbd
  smbd version 3.0.10-1.4E.2 started.

  # grep "char" /etc/samba/smb.conf
  #

- System new
  - windomainlogon:     err: "Die Prozeduranzahl liegt ausserhalb des
erlaubten Bereichs"
  - smbclient:          o.k.


  # cat /etc/redhat-release
  CentOS release 5.4 (Final)

  # grep "smbd version" log.smbd
  smbd version 3.3.12 started.

  # echo $LANG
  de_DE.UTF-8

  # grep "char" /etc/samba/smb.conf
  #

  # grep $BENUTZER /etc/passwd| cut -d : -f 5 | hexdump -C
  00000000  74 65 73 74 20 6a f6 72  62 72 61 6d 0a           |test
j.rbram.|

- test charset [1]
  The idea: forced the conversion, but it did not a success:

  # grep charset smb.conf
  unix charset = UTF-8
  display charset = UTF-8


regards Heiko
(believes to know, which i did wrong...)
