I tried that a while back, together with webmin and that php thing.

I was kinda hoping to use webmin for everything; DNS, DHCP, LDAP so  
that a jr sys admin could manage our intranet based services.  But  
with LDAP, webmin doesn't seem to like adding users to groups and  
errors out.

So I just hand edit an ldif for now and ldapmodify.

I'll revisit the webmin error regarding adding users to groups and see  
whats going on.

Thanks for all the good tips.
