Please contact me offlist/directly if you have implemented:
LDAP authentication, using Mac OSX 10.5 server with it's bundled Open
Directory as the backend to authenticate users on Linux, OSX (10.4 and
10.5) desktops, and Windows XP SP3 desktops.
A client has a setup of heterogenous desktop setup and wants to
implement Directory Services for the organization.
The composition is 80% Linux desktop + 2 Linux File servers (NFS+Samba),
7 OSX desktops and 5 Windows XP desktops).
The user's Unix (Linux/OSX) profile is portable to the respective
platform via LDAP and Windows profile is portable through Samba.
Samba+LDAP back end needs to be configured on 2 Linux file servers as
well on the OSX server (for user's home dir).

PS - I have already tried openLDAP (on Linux), works with Linux
desktops, OSX clients see the LDAP server but do not authenticate from
the graphical login window.
