Mdk 10 Official Samba w/ LDAP backend.

Problem: I have to find a way to stop useing the root dn for Samba 
access as it is not a scalable solution.  Problem is that I am haveing 
some trouble getting host based LDAP auth working. Every time I enable 
hosts in nsswitch.conf devfs fails on restart.  What is REALLY wierd 
though is that I can use "getent" to retrieve info from LDAP with no 
trouble just prior to restarting.

This is kind of off topic, I know, but this *is* one of the places where 
I might find an answer.  Perfectly happy to get off-list responses.
