There's the back-sql backend included in OpenLDAP-2.0 package, which allows
you to use many RDBMSes (mySQL included) to hold LDAP data.
See documentation and samples in the distribution (in source subdirectory
back-sql), also you should read the FAQ at
http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/378.html

which hopefully helps to understand what type of RDBMS support for LDAP you
need (if you need it at all ;)
