If you don't mind overriding the system ldap commands, which are 
normally located in /usr/bin, you could do
$ export PATH=/opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin:$PATH
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/fedora-ds/shared/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Alternatively, you could go to the directory /opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin, 
and run the command line interface:
$ cd /opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin; ./ldapsearch <options>
This way, the library path is take care of by rpath.  If you don't want 
to make the fedora-ds command line utilities conflict with the system 
ones, you may want to make a script file (for each command) and set the 
<script_file_path> to your path...
