This is not a samba problem but a SSH/Ubuntu/Ldap problem :)
You need both packages pam_ldap AND nss_ldap.
You need to configure both (configuration is very similar, but there
may be some differences).
To give a brief explanation:
pam_ldap is used by ssh (you need to configure /etc/pam.d/ssh !) to
accept the username and password
nss_ldap is used by thing slike getent, or to show your correct
username and group when you do a "ls -l"
Now it much depends how your LDAP tree is organized, so I cannot give
much more advise; what is the objectClass you use for your users? I am
surprised to see that user and password belongs to different place in
the LDAP tree. I am also surprised that the /etc/pam.d example you
give do not contain a single reference to ldap...
There are good how-to floating on Google, that work you step by step.
Best regards,
Olivier
