Alias / / <== here you are trying to alias the physical root dir to the webroot? which is incorrect
Alias /lsmb /path/to/your/ledgersmbdir <= it should look like this
<Directory /path/to/your/ledgersmbdir> <= directory needs a directory argument
  AllowOverride All
  AddHandler cgi-script .pl
  Options ExecCGI Includes FollowSymlinks
  Order Allow,Deny
  Allow from All
</Directory>

<Directory /users>
  Order Deny,Allow
  Deny from All
</Directory>
