  1. Install the libpam-ldap and libnss-ldap packages.

    While the packages are being installed, the setup process will ask you for the URI to your LDAP server, the DN of your LDAP search base, the LDAP version, etc, and then stores them in /etc/ldap.conf (or /etc/pam-ldap.conf and /etc/libnss-ldap.conf on older versions of Ubuntu).
