Have you looked at the ClearOS distribution? It comes up with a simple
web interface to manage all of this with authentication done with a
pre-configured LDAP setup. I think LDAP replication is slated for the
next version - which is waiting for CentOS 6 for it's components but
you'd only need that if you have several different servers and want
changes to propagate across them.
