phpBB does support LDAP, but in previous versions there where IIRC some
issues with switching from local user accounts in the phpBB tables to
LDAP and then wanting to add support for OpenID and OAuth later.

I have not checked that specific requirement (LDAP + OpenId/OAuth)
recently, I will go look at the latest release notes this weekend and
get back to the list.

Best wishes,

Drew
