Are you talking about configure options?

--with-ldapsam is just a compatability option for Samba 2.2, to make it
possible for existing sites to easily upgrade.

(it changes smb.conf defaults and options only).  --with-ldap is the
default, and tells us that we should try and use ldap, both for our
passdb, and for ADS and the like.
