A few comments about this part:

> +LDAP support is added by means of @file{ldap.el}, which is part of
> +Emacs.  @file{ldap.el} needs an external command line utility named
> +@file{ldapsearch}, available as part of OpenLDAP

Command names are better given the @command markup (here and elsewhere
in the patch).

> +@subsection Emacs-only Configuration

Please don't use sectioning commands without a corresponding @node.
Having subsections that aren't nodes makes those subsections harder to
find.

> +Specifying the function @code{ldap-password-read} for @code{passwd}
> +will cause Emacs to prompt interactively for the password.  The
> +password will then be validated and cached, unless
> +@code{password-cache} is nil.  You can customize
> +@code{password-cache-expiry} to control the duration for which the
> +password is cached.  If you want to clear the cache, call
> +@code{password-reset}.

Each variable or function you describe should have a corresponding
@findex or @vindex entry right before the description.

> +To authenticate, the @dfn{bind distinguished name (binddn)} is

When you introduce a new term using @dfn, please provide a @cindex
entry for that term.

> +@example
> +machine ldaps://directory.example.com binddn example\emacsuser password s3cr3t
> +@end example

This line is too long, and since lines in @example are never broken by
the typesetter, it will overflow the right margin.  Break it into 2 or
more lines, and indicate in the text that this is one long line, to
avoid confusion.

> +@example
> +binddn example\emacsuser password s3cr3t
> +@end example

> +and the @file{.emacs} expressions become:

You need @noindent before the last line, otherwise it will be
indented, as it starts a new paragraph.

I think these lines are also too long, consider breaking them.

Thanks.
