I suggesting only to have an installation option under "Authentification configuration" to install an LDAP Server instead of using /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow.
I think "instead of using /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow" is misleading. Many setups that use LDAP for user auth/info still use /etc/passwd for system level accounts.
I agree though, the whole LDAP/Kerberos server side setup is far more fiddly than it needs to be atm.
