I've compiled Samba with ldapsam. Now when I am doing "smbpasswd -a nobody", it replies "rid: attribute type undefined". It tries to use samba 2.x.x LDAP schema (rid is a historical attribute in samba.schema)
THis is a configuration error then. Make sure you are using ldapsam and not ldapsam_compat. Also make sure you are using the correct version of smbpasswd.
