Official support has been dropped for LDAP backend by its former 
maintainer and, as a result, by PowerDNS too. v2.9.22 is the last 
working version, even with some limitations
(see: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.dns.powerdns.devel/1371)

Documentation is available here (by the former maintainer): 
http://www.linuxnetworks.de/doc/index.php/PowerDNS_LDAP_Backend

Thanks to a recent ldap-backend fork, development has restarted, but 
needs testing - no official releases yet. Read here about the fork:

Here is the latest call for testing, after adding master support for the 
first time:

to keep updated about all progress regarding ldap backend.

If you can help with testing or otherwise, it will certainly make a 
difference. Pdns ldap backend had been largely neglected (despite my 
efforts to keep it alive).

I'm gonna test the latest version in the next few days.
