How do you come to the conclusion that your current setup doesn't use bind?

Yes. That should work.

Configfiles:

/etc/nsswitch.conf
/etc/ldap.conf
/etc/pam.d/* or /etc/security/pam_unix2.conf

Daemons to restart: at least nscd, probably others that need to be made aware
of the changed pam configuration (e.g. sshd, xdm).
