There's a nice article from IBM on single sign-on using LDAP:
http://www7b.boulder.ibm.com/wsdd/library/techarticles/0108_botzum/botzum.html
It doesn't answer your question, but may be of general interest to the list.

It's fairly basic, but first I would ensure that you have already added
the superior tree objects, i.e., did you already add an organisation
object with DN "o=MonteCarloLab,c=US", and then another organizationalUnit
with DN "ou=People,o=MonteCarloLab,c=US"?
The point is that the object nodes in a tree have to exist before
you can add new objects below it. Forgive me if you've alreadyt done this. :-)
