So, in a previous post, I wrote about how to setup LDAP authentication for CloudStack. That is the old way. THIS is the NEW way! :-)
So, after you get CloudStack installed, you'll want to install CloudMonkey somewhere - for testing purposes, I just installed it on my master server.
Before doing this, you'll need an account created in CloudStack to match that of the one you want to use as the authenticator for the LDAP server. I created an account for myself, and used that to bind to my LDAP account.
Once it's installed and configured, and you've sync'ed over the API commands from your master server, change the following command to meet your needs, and run it:
If it is successful, you will see the following:
And that's it. You should now be able to login to your CloudStack server with your LDAP account!
I'll cover CloudMonkey more in upcoming posts, but I keep seeing LDAP authentication asked about on the mailing list, so I figured I'd update my post to get the info out there.
As always, comments/questions/critiques welcome!

If it is successful, you will see the following:
ldapconfig:
binddn = CN=Kirk Jantzer,CN=Users,DC=city,DC=domain,DC=com
hostname = dc1.city.domain.com
port = false
queryfilter = (uid=%u)
searchbase = CN=Users,DC=city,DC=domain,DC=com
