More info: I tried deleting ou=corp (after making a backup of course) and
still no dice. As soon as I put back ou=corp and make the baseDN in smb.conf
ou=corp, everything works. If I take all the entries under ou=corp and copy
them one level up, I can't authenticate to Samba anymore. It doesn't make
any sense.
