[cvsnt] CVSNT authentication against OpenLDAP

Hello World,

I have the following situation:
Server: Debian GNU/Linux, cvsnt
Clients: Windows and Linux, cvs (cvshome.org) and/or cvsnt

I have installed OpenLDAP on the server. The system users are 
authenticated against this server. Now, I want CVSNT to authenticate 
also against the users in the OpenLDAP server.
Two other requirements:
1) The user should have access to the CVSNT repositories, even if s/he 
is not a system user (similar to the password (CVSROOT/passwd) file with 
pserver, where I can make entries for users that have otherwise no 
access to the system)
2) Encryption is required

Has anyone already done that? Any hint, tips, tutorials, etc.?

Thank you in advance
	Andreas
