[Samba] Samba w/ ADS support

I'd guess it has a lot to do with your flags.  If you look at John T.'s
notes on the subject (http://samba.org/~jht/Notes/Samba-Install-Solaris9.txt
), he does:

set cflags = -I /usr/local/include -l/usr/local/lib

But that's also with everything built with a prefix if /usr/local.
Personally I do something more like you but then set the flags appropriately
for each piece of extra software.  Something like this should work for you:

Set clflags = - I /usr/local/openldap/include -l/usr/local/openldap/lib - I
/usr/local/kerberos5/include -l/usr/local/kerberos5/lib

I generally set a few more flag versions and it works, but then again when I
was learning how to make Solaris behave I was working on all of 8, 9 and 10,
which all had their own tweaks.  Now my solaris boxes are gone so this is
just from memory.
