I'm having a great deal of difficulty with integrating dovecot 2.0.9 with a
new installation of samba4 4.1.11 and would appreciate anyones help who has
this working.

*Problem 1:*
if dn= cn=Administrator,dc=ourhome,dc=net with dnpass = *****
---------------I get NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
but dn = "Administrator at ourhome.net" with dnpass = **** works
I guess I shouldn't complain but why doesn't the first one work?

*Problem 2:*
can't seem to get a working set of
 usr_attrs/user_filter,pass_attrs/pass_filter to authenticate

*dovecot-ldap.conf :*
uris = ldap://localhost:389
dn = "Administrator at ourhome.net"
dnpass = ****
tls = no
ldap_version = 3
base = cn=Users,dc=ourhome,dc=net
scope = subtree
user_filter = (&(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName=%u))
user_attrs
sAMAccountName=user,userPassword=password,=mail=maildir:/var/vmail/%Ld/%n,
=home=/var$
pass_filter = (&(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName=%u))
pass_attrs = sAMAccountName=user,userPassword=password

*dovecont.message log output:*
