I am trying to configure Sun java directory server to work with apache2
Actually I am very novice in LDAP concept and
I really can't understand which object classes and attributes should I
use for a web server to be authenticated through ldap.
I would be grateful if you could help me regarding this matter.

The Directory Server will allow you to store information about people, including their credentials and group emmbership. This information is structured as objects (defined by an objectclass, containing attributes).
Apache or a web server will use LDAP to authenticate users and to check group membership to grant authorization to pages.
Overall, I would advise you to read the Directory Server Deployment Guide for more information on Directory Server and LDAP, and considerations for planning your deployment.
