Question Installing openLDAP

Well this process has been amazingly horrendous. I would like to make contact with someone who has successfully installed openLDAP on their OSX box. Even using fink I can't get it to install.

I have a secure SSL Apache server and want to allow LDAP authentication. I also wan to mirror our businesses LDAP server as a back up for them.

Thanks in advance

I don't know anyone who has successfully installed OpenLDAP. I always get something broken having to do with threads. Quite annoying.

I did it

You have to get the latest source code from the openldap CVS server.
That built and tested just fine (I did it a couple of months ago under
10.0.x).

The officially released tarball does fail miserably on the threads stuff.

I did but.....

I did install from the CVS and it failed as normal. Could you post some simple instructions from how you achieved this so I can mimic your way and see if it is just a 10.1 flaw?

Thanks

sorry but I dont remember how exactly I did it but it wasn't any heroics.

The CVS version found the thread libraries properly and the compile went
smooth.

Where in Boston are you? I'm in Waltham. When I get into the office,
I can see if I can maybe tar up what I have for you but I may have cleaned
things up.

Hmm. Well, I live in Virginia, so that doesn't help. =)

So, 2.0.15 doesn't work? That was the latest release I tried. I don't think I can download the cvs from where I have an internet connection (NOT on my mac).

well, I just went there and 2.0.18 (dated TODAY) is 'stable'.

You should try that.
