Linux PDC mit Samba und LDAP

Hallo,
bei mir tritt folgendes Problem auf.
Ich versuche einen Linux PDC mit Samba und LDAP wie im Linux Magazin Sonderheft Nr. 03/2007 unter Ubuntu einzurichten.
Leider erscheint jedesmal beim Aufruf von sudo smbldap-populate folgende Fehlermeldung mit der ich nichts anfangen kann. Besonders der Teil, daß kein Root existiert macht mich etwas stutzig.
