The relevant parts of my /etc/openldap/slapd.conf :

#
include         /etc/openldap/schema/core.schema

# The following schemas are included in the package:
#include        /etc/openldap/schema/corba.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
#include        /etc/openldap/schema/java.schema
#include        /etc/openldap/schema/misc.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/openldap.schema

On this machine I only use LDAP to authenticate ftp-users. I have no idea if 
you need different setup for ssh. On the other hand I think PAM 
authentication is disabled for ssh by default, and that may cause troubble 
for you.
