If you are referring to the smb.conf below, then, no it isn't. That
smb.conf is from a standalone server, there is absolutely no ldap
involved.

You should be able to connect, but only as the guest user 'nobody',
unless your users do exist on the Samba server, but with a different or
no password.

That is not the whole smb.conf, what is in the 'include' files ?
Also, why have you got 'bind interfaces only = yes' without actually
specifying which interfaces ?

Please define 'can not connect', as I said it is a standalone server,
so they should be able to connect.

I think you need to give us more info, at the start of your post, you
mention ldap, do you have another Samba server running as a PDC ?
