Using LDAP for authentication

["Derek J. Balling" <dredd@megacity.org>]

Perhaps this isn't the right forum (I couldn't connect to the archives 
to peruse them first). If not, my apologies and if someone could point 
me to the right spot, I'd appreciate it.

I want to authenticate a bunch of machines against the LDAP server. 
That's easy. :-)

What's more interesting are:

1.) Can I set it up so that a given uid is only valid on certain hosts?

2.) Can I set it up so that a given uid might have, say, /bin/bash as a 
shell on host1, and /bin/false as a shell on host2?

3.) Similarly, can I set up different homedirs? (on our production 
environment users have shared home directories depending on what they 
do, billing, order-entry, etc.)

Thanks much in advance,
D
