Hello! I just joined this mailing list, so I apologize in advance if this topic has already been covered. Red Hat and Suse announced they are no longer supporting OpenLDAP in future releases. https://www.ostechnix.com/redhat-and-suse-announced-to- withdraw-support-for-openldap/ However, we mainly use CentOS and while it's a RH derivative, I wanted to find out what CentOS plans on doing in this regard. Will you continue to include OpenLDAP or will it simply be removed? I wasn't able to find any CentOS related articles in response to this, and the only thing I did find that said CentOS hasn't released whether they will continue to support it or not is from two years ago? https://daasi.de/en/2017/09/25/red-hat-wont-continue-openldap-support-rhel-8-daasi-international-supports-migration/ Any updates/feedback/information is appreciated :) Thank you!
In addition to Johnny's feedback, here's my 2 cents. On the OpenLDAP mailing list users with problems with RHEL/CentOS provided OpenLDAP have been advised for years to use the latest OpenLDAP RPMs from https://ltb-project.org/ or from https://symas.com which also provides paid support. The OpenLDAP version included in RHEL 7 (and thus CentOS 7) is 2.4.44 which is missing a ton of fixes compared to upstream's latest release.
tl;dr use the latest RPMs from the LTB Project or Hymas. BR, Patrick _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
