If you experience problems with MIT, try with heimdal. Configuration only
departs from non-ldap backend in the fact that you must supply an ldap
dbname in the database section.

If you don't get an answer here, check with whomever maintains the
package for Ubuntu (or an Ubuntu support list). It may be that
they've just overlooked the LDAP support, or maybe they put it in a
separate package so as not to make the main package introduce an LDAP
dependency on systems where LDAP isn't otherwise in use.

Building the LDAP storage module is an open wishlist bug against the
Debian krb5 packages, but I don't want to try to add it without checking
with Sam first. Hopefully we'll be able to get that into lenny.
