Hi,

I solved it. Without LDAP one is able to use %L, %U and %a in the logon 
path, but if one uses LDAP then this path is no longer processed by 
Samba, but instead passed literally to Windows. So far my solution is to 
change all LDAP entries. This also means I should name multiple servers 
(on different networks) with the same hostname. Its a bit more limiting 
the smb.conf, but it works.

Yours,
Alex
