I agree it should be pretty much like that ... launch a wizard, input
the base dn, check to see if samba is installed and ask if you want it
to use OpenLDAP for authentication and if it is the primary or backup
domain controller update the smb.conf and have it populate a basic tree.

SuSE Enterprise 9 supposedly has that functionality with a yast
plugin ... I have not had a chance play with SELS 9 yet.

Fedora should have something like system-config-ldap would be nice to
have to make RH/Fedora better for small organizations with a part-time
or single person IT staff.

I've looked at several GUI tools to manage OpenLDAP, but they are either
too generic or not maintainted and don't support Samba 3 schema or have
stability issues.
