If you are not attempting to install samba from source, how are you
going to get ads and winbindd support? What does OpenLDAP have to do
with doing up samba for ads and winbind?

That is a sticker. you need to have  version of krb5 installed, either
MIT or HEIMDAL.

Good on the D/L of MIT KRB5 1.3.4. Shucks, ncurses. well, you downloaded
that.

Well, that is a biggy. you might have gcc installed (the C compiler) but
not have the C++ compiler g++ installed. It happens to all of us.

Yes, how long have been an admin of a *NIX machine? I can say I have had
to deal with things like this for eons. If you do it often enough, you
get good at it. I used to update whole Linux machine with touch RPM or
any other package manager. Mainly they screwed up everything I needed
left as is (config wise). So, I used Slackware. Now I use Debian Sid.

Now, remember I said alot. But gave no real answer. You asked alot but
gave us no clues how to help you.

What *NIX are you using.  Is it a Linux or *BSD? If it is Linux which
distro is it? 

When you can tell us the answers, we can help.
