You can set NetBSD up to authenticate against an OpenLDAP server. If 
got a setup like this running with 3 Mac OS X clients and a NetBSD 
OpenLDAP server.

If you want to use OpenLDAP over SSL you have to add the SSL 
certificate of the LDAP server to the MacOS X box -- otherwise it will 
ignore the LDAP server.

BTW: Netinfo is nothing like LDAP. Netinfo is an old Next technology 
(at least they used it) and is used by Mac OS X instead of /etc/passwd 
and other files. But Mac OS X can also use LDAP servers to hold this 
information.
