Try using a binary data type (for an attribute) to store a .wav
or .ul... or whatever format sound file you have (unless you
want to store the ability to speak- in which case LDAP can't
help you).

Look at the admin guide.  You'll need to create
slapd.user_at.conf (attribute names and variable types),
slapd.user_oc.conf (objectclass sketch, for your custom object),
<name>.schema (schema definition (a weird syntax definition of
the two above files) where <name> is the name you give it.  Not
that slapd.conf needs to be told to include your custom schema
(but it automatically reads the first two files mentioned)).
