I like to setup Cyrus to use LDAP for user authentication and global addressbook. May I ask what steps do I need? Do I still need SASL?

SASL's always necessary for Cyrus. You want saslauthd, possibly with -a ldap. That switch is dependent on whether or not you want saslauthd to authenticate directly to LDAP. Leave it off if you're using something like pam_ldap (how I personally have it set up, and thus recommended). The use of LDAP as a global address book is a function of your mail client, and has nothing to do with Cyrus.
