    If you can configure apache then you can configure openldap, its very simple and easy to setup. And "LAMP" is an embarassment, apache is a bug-riddled security nightmare, PHP is an order of magnitude worse, mysql is a wonderful replacement for flat files, but is worthless as a database, and linux doesn't really matter in the whole thing, any OS could be used and it would make no difference.
