Did you run configure.pl from the smbldap-tools package ?

Here's what I did

mkdir /usr/local/etc/smbldap-tools
chmod 700 /usr/local/etc/smbldap-tools
/usr/local/share/examples/smbldap-tools/configure.pl

Also I'd rather run smbldap-populate -e /tmp/init.ldif
and then ldapadd the ldif file after revewing it.
