So, some googlin' given that this nssov is new to me... it seems that I
run a full fledged LDAP server (slapd) on every client?

Wow.  That seems a might overkill also.  Workstations are already so
overly bloated, adding an LDAP server just to deal with disconnected use
just seems like over-engineering the problem.

Maybe I am just mis-understanding it all.
