I think that might be a bit of overkill. Red Hat's IPA uses LDAP as a
datastore, but it's LDAP+Kerberos++. Not only that, but it uses an
extended LDAP schema. So if you're just trying to get started with
OpenLDAP experiments instead fo raising an entire enterprise identity
and security infrastructure at one go, definitely way more than that.
And actually, Red Hat bought Novell's LDAP server product several years
ago, and so be using that instead of OpenLDAP for IPA.
