account and group context are, if you want the LDAP data avilable also
for user auth in the system, People and Group respectively, eg, for me:
dn: dc=sv,dc=lnf,dc=it
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: organization
o: Associazione La Nostra Famiglia San Vito al Tagliamento
dc: sv
dn: cn=admin,dc=sv,dc=lnf,dc=it
objectClass: organizationalRole
objectClass: simpleSecurityObject
cn: admin
description: LDAP administrator LNF San Vito
userPassword:: pass ;)
dn: ou=People,dc=sv,dc=lnf,dc=it
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: People
dn: ou=Group,dc=sv,dc=lnf,dc=it
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: Group
but this is only a ``standard'', LDAP are very configurable. ;)

Tipically you have put somewhere in openldap installation.
