I don't know about quasi-official, but we use LAM (http://lam.sourceforge.net/). It's an excellent web-based tool for administering accounts. I'd highly recommend it. I don't know what version they're on now, but we've been using it since version 0.3 in production (currently on 0.4).

Re: [Samba] LDAP and Samba
I'm no expert on compilation... but obviously you are missing a library. if you repost perhaps with subject... samba 3(or correct ver) compile error and list error...one of the developers would be able to answer you. ps: some Mandrake and I think Redhat rpms are compiled with ldap. look in downloads or http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/ regards, Richard Coates.

Re: [Samba] LDAP and Samba
The option "-with-ldapsam" is trying to compile samba with Openldap support, which perhaps you don't have installed? Do you want/need ldap? Do you really need to compile your own? as there are RPM/packages available for many distros. regards, Richard Coates.
