Comment(by christian):

 Thanks, I can login on the server. I found the location of the OJS
 installation.

 If I can get access to the config.inc.php of the OJS instance, I will be
 able to solve 1. (get access). The db credentials are in the
 config.inc.php.
 Using the db credentials, I can assign registered Users of the OJS
 instance any roles.

 For 2. (make access SSL), there is already a site called 'journal-ssl'
 enabled in apache2. I would have to check with the OJS instance
 config.inc.php and the apache error logs, why SSL is not working already?
 According the OJS documatation it is a simple boolean to set for forcing
 the use of SSL...

 For 3. (LDAP access), I found that this is configurable from the frontend,
 and should be straight forward, if the LDAP server data is available.
 http://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs/docs/userguide/2.3.3/siteAdministrationAuthentication.html

 According 4. (OJS is up to date?), the current running version is 2.4.3,
 the latest stable release of OJS is 2.4.4-1. I can try the update in a
 sandbox if I can get write access to a (web accessible) folder, and a DB.

 PS: Should I "accept" the ticket, to assign it to me?
