The details are rather simple. I'm about to start using MacOS X Server for workstation authentication at my job. It allows authentication to be pulled from an LDAP server if it follows a certain pattern (which I have documentation for) or to serve its own data out via LDAP. I've never been able to get LDAP running properly off of any server, so I really don't know what steps to take first or how to structure things or even what to expect. So any advise on how to get started would be appreciated. Also, any advise on which way to control things (serve passwords from MacOS X Server or FreeBSD) would be appreciated.
