Help setting up LDAP for a complete noob

Hi,

I'm doing a bit of work for a small non-profit which has a tiny network (four desktops connected via a wireless router which gives web access). They have one email address which is accessed by multiple users at any one time, so I've switched them over to IMAP so that everything is kept synchronised.

Now I'd like to do the same thing with their address book, and I think that LDAP might be the thing I am after. I've spent the last half hour searching for information but it's all going straight over my head.

Is there a simple way I can setup an LDAP directory? Should I even be using LDAP; is there something simpler that would do the job?

Many, many thanks in advance to anyone who is able to help with this.
