I have successfully managed to authenticate all of the above services
against an LDAP directory on FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE.

Note that FreeBSD has no nss_ldap support, therefore you will require
entries for each user in /etc/passwd. This is not necessarily the case
for daemons which can obtain user information via LDAP directly, and
which do not use the getpwent() et al set of libc interfaces.
