Replacing NIS with Kerberos and LDAP:

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).  Directory Administrator is an excellent tool
for easily managing users in an LDAP directory.
