The problem is that people sit back and wait for some gui tool to set things up for them but the gui tools don't make sense until you understand ldap. The reason that I love the Gerald Carter book (LDAP System Administration) is that he gives it to you in really basic spoonfuls...three hours and you get it. Bing! Be forewarned though...the book is old and uses ldbm database but that's essentially obsolete and now the suggested way is to use bdb but ldbm is good enough to start.
