Please help me guys.,

OpenLDAP is a pretty well documented project, they have complete docs for installing and configuring an OpenLDAP server.
Using google I found these links to get you started: www.openldap.org/doc/admin22/install.html www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=04/03/01/1318258
Then I looked for a ldap basics guide:
(Even tho there is some iSeries references in the IBM article, it will cover the basics of LDAP, enough to get you started)
Then look at the Rails Wiki http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoAuthenticateViaLdap
I hope I have been helpful. I don't believe you'll find much help form
others tho, just get the documentation and read it all. We all had to
read the docs. If you get stuck with a problem, then ask.
