In SuSE 9.0, you already have a way to setup users in an LDAP directory. It
does however, require that you setup your slapd or have access to a remote
ldap server. If you are planning on setting up your own LDAP server, a good
starting point, would be the migration tools ... these provide a good read,
and tools to migrate to ldap.

Also, the LDAP howto, is a good read in general when starting.
After your ldap server is setup or acquired, you can easily use Yast to
edit, modify user base. It's a bit awkward though, and if you want a
complete LDAP data explorer. I reccomend this browser:
or
