Hi Matthias,
Indeed, we have no support for OpenLDAP at this stage.

You can see we have an enum at code defining the providers we support -
LdapProviderType.java located at -

modules/utils/src/main/java/org/ovirt/engine/core/ldap/LdapProviderType.java

You can follow the instructions on the following wiki -
http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/DomainInfrastructure

To start adding OpenLdap support.
I will be more than glad to assist you

Cheers,
Yair
