Dears,

in the moment I have no time to test something about with openca (perhaps next 
week again).
But if you use openldap (slapd) with certificates, I beleave, you must  use  
more schema than the default.
Look at this from LDAP-Implementation-HOWTO:
%<-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.1. LDAP Server configuration

The LDAP server used here is OpenLDAP 2.0.x.

Your LDAP server must support objectclasses that allows attributes to store 
certificates. In particular you need to store in the LDAP server the 
Certification Authority certificate, the Certificate Revocation List, the 
Authority Revocation List and end users certificates.

The certificationAuthority objectclass implements the authorityRevocationList, 
certificateRevocationList and cACertificate attributes.

The inetOrgPerson objectclass supports the usercertificate (binary) attribute.

You can also use the mix-in objectclass strongAuthenticationUser to add 
certificates to non inetOrgPerson entries.

You can include required schemas to OpenLDAP including the following schemas 
into your slapd.conf file.

 
include        /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema 
include        /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include        /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
%<-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Greetings
