Yes it should. IIRC all that RFC does is define some new attributes and objectclasses for the server, hence any LDAP server that supports extending the schema should support the RFC. The key part is not the server setup, but the client setup. You need to look at Section 5, and in particular Section 5.1. A good book on this topic is LDAP System Administration by Gerald Carter: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/ldapsa/index.html Keith.
