Samba 3.0 is designed to do this quite nicely - the schema file is in
examples/LDAP/samba.schema.

You configure it by saying:

idmap backend = ldap:ldap://my.ldap.server

Are you using ldap for Samba accounts too, or just for IDMAP?  

If you are using it for IDMAP/unix only, then things are not as
'pleasant' as they should be in how it's stored - it's on my todo list
to fix.
