Re: Redhat LDAP support

[Alain RICHARD <alain.richard@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The ldap support under samba is marked as experimental mainly because the schema used may evolves, but it is perfectly working and is in use at various sites. It is really easy to get it compiled under redhat just by modifying the spec file in the .src.rpm file from redhat, adding a "--with-ldapsam" to its ./configure line. The only drawback of doing so is that samba will require the ldap package beeing install, but this one is already required by a  lot of other modules. There is no compatibility or efficiency problem for non ldap users (it just enables new configurations directives).

For apache, ldap support is standard on all version 2.0.41 and later. The current version is 2.0.45 and support ldap. As long as you don't configure it, there is no efficiency problem for the average user (ldap support are just modules that you may use or not in your httpd.conf).
