Simo, 

This gave me a good starting point, and after reading some more, I'm starting to wrap my brain around what I want to do and how to do it.
LDAP has a steep learning curve, IMHO.
Can you recommend any GUI tools for creating/modifying the ACI for the container?  I started to try and create an ACI using the ones within FreeIPA as a reference, but if there's a GUI that would be useful too.  I checked out Apache Directory Studio which looks nice, but doesn't seem to support the schema that FreeIPA is using.
