Authenticating SSH from a seperate LDAP server?

[John Hoffmann <jhoffmann@vasoftware.com>]

I have a system where the /etc/ldap.conf is pointing to an RSA ldap server.  All 
 low numbered accounts are stored there, including root, as this is a managed 
system.

I'd like to run a seperate SSH daemon on a new port and have it (the new ssh 
daemon, nothing else) authenticate out of an OpenLDAP server running on the same 
box, and not from the RSA key server.  I've tried including a .ldaprc file in 
the user who runs the ssh daemon's home dir but that the daemon doesn't seem to 
pick up on it.

Is anyone else doing something similiar, and if you are, can you please explain how?
