ldap is still a bit complicated.

that's not the same search...
it is doing 
ldapsearch -x -h ldap &(uid=dballing)(objectclass=sambaAccount))

i don't know why it does the second search...

make that first search work and you're all set.

you have to create the sambaAccount stuff
try the smbldap-tools package from the great guys at University of
Navarra.

good luck!
