[Samba] smbpasswd -a not working with ldap

[James]

Hi i'm trying to add new samba users with an ldap backend
i can use smbpasswd to change current samba user passwords but if i try 
to add a user it won't add the attributes to the ldap account.
i have run smbpasswd -w already
I noticed that when running smbpasswd and adding a user the search 
filter is looking for a sambasamaccount but that attribute needs to be 
CREATED by smbpasswd -a right?
Debian Etch
Samba 3.0.24-6etch4
TIA

Here's my smb.conf and my smbpasswd debug
