[Samba] LDAP suffix question

Hi,
I would like to have a DIT similar to this for my Samba server :
ou=People,dc=domain,dc=com: users accounts
ou=Group,dc=Domain,dc=com: groups
ou=Hosts,dc=domain,dc=com: machine accounts
ou=Samba,dc=domain,dc=com: Samba specific stuff, such as sambaDomain,
sambaUnixIdPool, etc
My understanding is that "ldap [user|group|machine] suffix" is relative
to "ldap suffix". Example :
ldap suffix = dc=domain,dc=com
ldap user suffix = ou=People
Thus, the effective "ldap user suffix" would be ou=People,dc=domain,dc=com.
This does not match the DIT I would like to achieve, as I would need to
specify "lateral" suffix for user, group, machine. I tried :
ldap suffix = ou=Samba,dc=domain,dc=com
ldap user suffix = ou=People,dc=domain,dc=com
...
But it does not work. Any idea how to achieve that ?
The reason I would like to design my DIT in such a way is strictly
cosmetic, as I would prefer not to clutter the root with sambaDomain and
sambaUnixIdPool entry.
Thanks !
