The question is missing a bit, but I guess you are looking for advice.
Building a PHP application around LDAP is quite simple.
Designing the LDAP server, filling it correctly, indexing it correctly can
be more interesting. Especially with outlook around, which means you have
to index for fields your server doesn't have but Outlook likes to search
on anyway (which slows down your average ldap server).
