Strategies to implement kolab

[Paul Franklin]

Well, that is a good warning to me.  I have in the back of my plans to 
try to switch Samba to LDAP, but haven't gotten around to it at home.  
I've tried at work but made some dumb mistake and got stopped.  It seems 
to think the root password is incorrect.
I have only the Kolab instance of Apache and knew better than to try 
more with my level of inexperience.
