2.2.7a It seems that samba-ldap is still to immature for any kind of production environment. The provided Perl scripts simply do not work with the 'add user script' setting or if they do, then there is an an undocumented bug, issue, etc. The scripts work fine from the command line but aparently samba won't execute them properly. Since I cannot expect my users to understand enough of the vagaries of Unix to log in with ssh and add thier machines to the system I don't see how samba-ldap can be implemented in a production environment.
