It is somewhat long,,,there is a "how to setup ldap as a central
authentication server", "setup samba to use ldap", and setup a
seperated debian client to use ldap central server, and "setup windows
client to use ldap central server"
All 3 categories need to be split otherwise if merged the confusion
will make this howto unusable, and on the other hand separating each
section into a link is not feasible because you are not able to see
the big picture which required include(). (by picture I mean full
menu)

Interesting idea......
As far as pdf, at this point I can generate pdf from a single page. So
if use include on the main page, then I can generate pdf via:
dblatex -T simple -o WikiSandBox.pdf WikiSandBox.xml
where .xml file is a docbook generated from moinmoin. One liner that
can generate a pdf with menu etc...
I haven't done any other work on generating pdf, as this works and its
extremely easy.
