The Hostname/mac-address/ip-name and domain is there for future
extension. With this information in ldap it's possible to scripts that
generate the correct dhcpd.conf and bind config stuff, or it's maybe
possible to use dhcp and dns-server that looks up this stuff in ldap
directly. But unfortunatly that did not reach debian-edu for the 3.0
release.

Then I guess you logged into lwat, did some stuff, then left lwat alone
for some time, and then continued. The login information was expired. I
hope to fix that for lwat 0.17, which i hope someday will make it into
debian-edu.

You also need to add the host to a netgroup. When a host is added to
ldap through lwat, it's also possible to adwd the host to a netgroup
(primarily for NFS for now), or to create a samba account for it to
allow it to be joined into a samba-domain.

You need to relogin. lwat 0.17 will require you to logged in as a user
(either ldap admin, a member of the admin group, or a normal user) to
use lwat.
