Well, smbldap-tools is invoked via a set of command-line programs, so
you can use them as-is from Ruby or create a more Rubyesque API by
wrapping the commands with Ruby classes. This is probably the easiest
thing to do.

There's also a Ruby LDAP interface (http://ruby-ldap.sourceforge.net/)
that may help you if you want to roll your own.
