OpenLDAP installation

Note: we're going to install OpenLDAP on our server as the local directory service, without replication, referrals or other advanced features.

Installing OpenLDAP on your Debian server is ridiculously simple. Just make sure your server is up-to-date (sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get upgrade), and then install the two main components for your OpenLDAP server:

sudo apt-get install slapd ldap-utils

The Debian configuration script will ask you for an administrator password. As always: generate a strong password!
