Authenticate a Samba box to a pre-existing LDAP server

Hello,

I have been reading some documentation on how to setup a Samba+LDAP environment, but they are all considering that I'm setting up a "new" LDAP server on the same machine.

I want to set up a Samba server (which is my server) but I would like to use an external LDAP server (which I don't have any access other than just authenticate myself) to authenticate the users in my Samba box.

The LDAP server is up and running (I can't do anything there). I just need to connect my Samba box to this LDAP server in order to authenticate the users.

Would you please suggest the right documentation so I could read it?? I will appreciate any help on this regard!!

Thanks, Marcelo
