	 <para>
	The <smbconfoption name="ldap admin dn"/> defines the Distinguished  Name (DN) name used by Samba to contact
	the ldap server when retreiving  user account information. The <smbconfoption name="ldap admin dn"/> is used
	in conjunction with the admin dn password stored in the <filename moreinfo="none">private/secrets.tdb</filename>
	file.  See the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbpasswd</refentrytitle> <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
	man page for more information on how  to accomplish this.
	</para>

	<para>
	The <smbconfoption name="ldap admin dn"/> requires a fully specified DN. The <smbconfoption name="ldap
	suffix"/> is not appended to the <smbconfoption name="ldap admin dn"/>.
