Pretty new to this myself, however this list has been very helpful and I
hope this will help you.
I had to use OpenLdap as a shared address book for Evolution. On google
I found an evolutionPerson.schema and included that file in my
slapd.conf.
One of the attributes of the schema was a list schema, to handle lists
of users. Not as elegant as I might like but I am still learning how to
use it.
There may be something similar, probably is something similar, for the
netscapeperson.schema.
I have found that using GQ and browsing the schema tab is a great way to
find things.

Hope this will help.

Love
Mike.
