I know of no way to make this happen.  The tools you are referring to 
just simply read the static /etc/passwd and /etc/group files. The ldap 
client tools make the connection and request to the ldap server which 
upon request hands them the credentials.

The tool id is completely different, as it runs through the pam setup 
for user information which then directs the request to the ldap server.
