Please check both your /etc/ldap.conf settings and your 
/etc/ldap/ldap.conf settings.  Note that one of the two has not been 
modified.  If you are using either the smbldap-installer script (is this 
updated for Gutsy?) or Jim's how-to,

http://www.1-cs.com/ubuntu_ldap_howto.txt

neither will work (in my experience) until you edit one of these two 
files by hand.  I am due to make some screenshots and updated docs on this.
