LDAP authentication question

Hello,
I have a Linux box with RHEL4 running on it. The box is meant to be on the DMZ. There is a directory on the box that will be remotely from time to time and I want a form of authentication on it.
Presently, I have configured Basic authentication with apache but the security is not tight.
I read about openldap and I need to know how I can use openldap with my box to authenticate remote users when about to view my box.
Can anyone please help me with this?
