As Jerome said samba would add the additional necessary attributes when
the workstation joins the domain. The ldap script has only to add the
posix stuff.

I do not know if this is correct because sometimes I have also the
problem that some workstations could not join the domain. If I check
then the ldap I could only see the entries necessary for a posixAccount.
If I delete this information from ldap my workstation is able to join
the domain which failed before... But only 2 to 5 of 200 workstations
will fail...

I hope this will help you.

kindly regards
rOger
