Perhaps a more universal answer for posterity...

The smbldap-tools package requires that you have LDAP support in your 
perl installation.  If you are using an RPM based linux distribution you 
could try to search your RPM repository for a perl-ldap package (Fedora 
Core 2 has one, that's the only linux distro I have on hand ATM) since 
it's better to use rpm whenever you can in a rpm system.  This will also 
make sure that you get the module where the system wants it as 
apparently you may be having a problem there.

If you don't have a package available, or you're using a non-rpm based 
thing like Solaris (eww) then by all means, mcpan it as given above.

Also, once you're done with that, make sure you configure the 
smbldap-tools package to work with your setup.  There's some other steps 
you've missed, or forgot to mention, like the one where you should join 
your samba box to your existing NT4 domain and vampire off the users... 
perhaps a read through the docs on samba.org would help here...
