No doubt. But I just managed to get my SLES8 system without YaST to use my ldap server. Once you have the packages like nss_ldap and pam_ldap on the system, there's /etc/openldap/ldap.conf /etc/pam.d/ /etc/security/pam_unix2.conf /etc/nsswitch.conf The one that took me a lot of time is the style of nsswitch.conf where I failed to remove the 'compat' lines under the 'files nis' sample lines.
