I use LDAP to authenticate everything/everybody including samba users
and http users (authz_ldap)

This is one of those things that RHEL/CentOS does exceptionally well...

authconfig
up2date authz_ldap or yum install authz_ldap

samba users/authentication is necessary only for samba, perhaps squid if
using ntlm authentication
