I've only just noticed this bug report. For the last couple of Ubuntu releases I've been patching and re-compiling the openldap (previously openldap2.3) packages in my PPA as I use the smbk5pwd overlay.

If you'd like to make use of my work, add the following to apt's sources.list for Intrepid:

    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ian-sigma-uk/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ian-sigma-uk/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main

or for Hardy:

    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ian-sigma-uk/ppa/ubuntu hardy main
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ian-sigma-uk/ppa/ubuntu hardy main

Then import my PPA key with:

    sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com a94c744b25d20c39c0918ff595d65a6ae51162d2

To avoid any odd dependencies the overlay is in a new package called slapd-smbk5pwd, which depends on the heimdal libraries. Hence you will need to have the universe repositories enabled for it to install. When you're ready:

    sudo apt-get install slapd-smbk5pwd

You should now be ready to use the overlay.

Hope this helps someone save the time it took me to work it all out. Maybe one day we could find a way of getting the slapd-smbk5pwd package in universe so that it's available to all?
