Hi rowland, 

tell me whats the problem, and i wil help you,
if there are errors in my howto i'll fix this, but.

The howto i wrote will work.
i installed 3 servers with this and its working
prefectly.

/etc/ldap/ldap conf to point to your server
>HOST 127.0.0.1
>BASE dc=<domainname>,dc=org or net or com or nothing(you do 
>not have to use the last part, you just have to be consistant)
 
This part, is done while you install the libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap
and the defaults of the slapd config are used and are corrected.

i think you edited this or already installed it.
If you use the debian standard setting it wil work.

Louis
