How to represent entries of /etc/passwd as LDAP objects is
not specific to OpenLDAP Software, there are countless ways.
However, I suspect you are interested in the ways which are
compatible with software, like nss_ldap, which allows those
objects to replace entries in /etc/passwd.  Questions
regarding nss_ldap requirements, or the requirements of
other such software, is more appropriately directed to lists
about that software.  Here's an appropriate URL:
