Replacing NIS with Kerberos and LDAP: http://www.ofb.net/~jheiss/krbldap/howto.html OpenLDAP, OpenSSL, SASL and KerberosV HOWTO http://www.bayour.com/LDAPv3-HOWTO.html Directory administrator: http://diradmin.open-it.org/index.php The first two documents are good information on how LDAP is set up (though you can make up your own mind whether or not Kerberos is worth a little additional effort).
