Re: Inconsistent use of tcp_close() causes handle leaks (ITS#667)

[Kurt@OpenLDAP.org]

1.2.11 NT support is known to be incomplete, quite experimental,
and unsupported.  In fact, nothing past the basic clients has
ever worked.  2.0, when released, will contain a more complete
NT port.

In the meantime, for SDKs, I suggest using the Mozilla/Netscape SDKs
or those available from Microsoft.  For a server, you can try
the Eudora slapd port (http://www.eudora.com/), buy something, or
wait.

You are, of course, welcomed to help in the development of our
NT port.  See the developer's FAQ and developer's list for more
info.
