I rebooted and nothing ... so I uninstalled everything, rebooted again and
then tried the apt-get ...

This time it asked about letting deb-conf configure(?) so I said yes, and it
then didn't ask anything at all about the ldap server or the other
questions, just dumped me back to a command prompt after finishing the
install.  /etc/nsswitch.conf was not modified nor any of the other files
(ldap.conf and so on).

SO, I'll try following or something the above again even though it also has
a warning that the instructions are out of date for 9.10.  But with a
blizzard heading here today, I'll have to do so later.  If anyone has a
simple set of instructions that set up an ldap client, I'd be ecstatic.
