If you use samba4 as an AD DC it comes with its own built in LDAP 
server, but as you are using samba as a client, you can forget I ever 
mentioned it ;-)

I had a look and the --with-ldap option that you can pass to the configure script cannot take an argument e.g. "--with-ldap=/usr/lib/openldap/bin" where the openldap library files are located. Is there another way to specify the location? Either to the configure script or perhaps afterwards in smb.conf?
