Samba Upgrade Issue

Over the weekend, I upgraded my server from RedHat 7.3 to Fedora.
For the most part, everything runs. There is a major problem however.
I was running Samba 2.2.x. When I did the upgrade, I no longer had
access to my home directory.
After finally finding some useful documentation, it appears that 3.x is
VASTLY different from 2.x. I THINK the issue relates to LDAP, but I
don't know anything about LDAP, and I haven't gotten far enough into the
documentation to make heads or tails of what's really going on.
Can anybody tell me if there's a quick fix for the home directory issue?
Secondly, I have video on the server, but it seems to be at the wrong
sync rate(s), because of video artifacts on the screen. I use an old
close out MicroCenter 14" monitor on a switchbox to access the server
directly. Apparently no version of RedHat can probe it correctly, and
finding the monitor spec.s is quite the challenge. I THINK I found a
usenet post on Google Groups (in Russian!) with the right spec.s, but
unless I'm mistaken the X configuration file has changed some too. It's
listed as an "E447AU" on the back of the monitor. I ended up picking a
Generic 1024x768 monitor just to get video. What do I need to change,
especially to get the frequency right for the resolutions?
Thanks in advance.
