Ok, first we need install the package (-_-! of course).

[root@localhost ~]# yum install nss-pam-ldapd

We need configure some files:
nss-pam-ldap:
/etc/nslcd.conf
authentication:
/etc/sysconfig/authconfig
nss:
/etc/nsswitch.conf
services:
/etc/init.d/nslcd
Minimum configuration for nslcd.conf

uid nslcd
gid ldap
base dc=sidoel,dc=com
uri ldap://192.168.1.200/

configure /etc/sysconfig/authconfig for enabling USELDAPAUTH

USELDAPAUTH=yes
USELDAP=yes

configuring /etc/nsswitch.conf

passwd:     files ldap
shadow:     files ldap
group:      files ldap

hosts:      files dns

bootparams: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files

ethers:     files
netmasks:   files
networks:   files
protocols:  files
rpc:        files
services:   files

netgroup:   files ldap

publickey:  nisplus

automount:  files ldap
aliases:    files nisplus

check all auth configuration

[root@localhost ~]# authconfig --updateall
Starting nslcd:                                            [  OK  ]

restart the nslcd services

[root@localhost ~]# /etc/init.d/nslcd restart
Stopping nslcd:                                            [  OK  ]
Starting nslcd:                                            [  OK  ]

cek our ldap account and group

[root@localhost ~]# getent passwd | grep fazrie
fazrie:*:1001:1001:Fazrie:/home/fazrie:/bin/bash
[root@localhost ~]# getent group | grep Linux
Linux Users:*:1001:
