You will need a scrip to do it. I'm not aware of any plugin currently
available that could do it for you.

The basics of the scrip shouldn't be too hard, but you're going to need
to set up an LDAP connection, do a valid search, parse the results save
the results etc. There is LDAP code for RT in the ExternalAuth plugin
that may be useful for copying and pasting, but I don't envy you your task.
