I wrote a little HOWTO on integrating a working Samba/OpenLDAP setup with Kolab.

Kolab is a secure, scalable and reliable Free Software Groupware Solution. Its users can view and edit common calendars, address books, tasks, notes, and more.

This means it can add a great value to your existing Samba setup. Your Samba users, using the same credentials, will share the same contacts, which means a global address book for you company. They could use the same calendar, so that their tasks could be planned better and more easily.

Users unfamiliar with Kolab can think of its features as similar to Exchange.
