Are your /home/ directories local or NFS mounted? What distro are you 
using? Are you using ACL's? I have a book you can borrow "Understanding 
and Deploying LDAP Directory Services". Its about 800 pages.  You can 
also google for info. I found :

          http://www.ameritech.net/users/mhwood/ldap-sec-setup.html
          
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin22/slapdconfig.html#Access%20Control
among others. Hope this helps.

I know I don't need a copy on every box- How do I get it to be available on the logged-in system?    What I'm looking for is a decent reference on how to set up the stuff that authconfig doesn't (pam, home directories, email, etc....)
