Or nss_ldap? > How did you setup a PDC without using either nss_ldap or winbind? nss_ldap: * requires modification to /etc/ldap.conf * requires the nss_ldap package. * requires modification of /etc/nsswitch.conf winbind: * requires the winbind flag for the samba ebuild * requires modification of /etc/nsswitch.conf getent passwd * returns users * returns workstations & servers also they will have a '$' at the end of the username). Normally this is completed via nss_ldap, but I have used winbind before, for the sake of not depending on the bleeding sore that is nss_ldap. So, how is the local box finding the network users? From your config, it appears that you are using smb-ldap tools, but is that the case? If you cat /etc/passwd - do you see the users? What does /etc/ldap.conf look like?
