Highly suggest moving to Samba-3.0.20b and testing again. The Gentoo 
ebuild for 3.0.20a built Samba using "--with-ldapsam" if the ldap use 
flag was set. And "passdb backend = ldapsam_compat" became the default 
(and it isn't set in your config file).

See: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108400 for details.

The 3.0.20b ebuild has a separate ldapsam use flag.
