Sorry for the delay, I think I jumbled my email boxes :)

This is off the top of my head (as my official Samba book is at home and 
I'm at work), but, all you should need is the nss_ldap module and the 
following lines in your /etc/nsswitch.conf:
[...]
passwd   files ldap winbind compat
shadow   files ldap winbind compat
group      files ldap winbind compat
[...]


This should enable getent passwd.  IIRC, there are no dependencies for 
nss_ldap, it just needs to be compiled.  At least on Slackware, as 
always, check with your upstream provider before compiling your own.
