sure, I use webmin's LDAP Users and Groups module on every network
server that I maintain. It's perfect for my needs.
The first question that occurs to me is if you did all that. When you do
'getent passwd' does each user in LDAP show up? Remember that if you
still have a user in /etc/passwd and in LDAP (which would be a fatal
setup), they would actually appear twice.
