As you are several people telling me this, and obviously more
experienced in LDAP administration than I am, I will of course consider
updating. I'm no hard-headed person, and am always open for changing my
point of view when it's apparent they don't match reality.
I do have to wonder though; does this mean that it's commonly known in
the LDAP community that distributiors are notoriously bad at maintaining
LDAP server packages in general, as opposed to other software? Or do you
consider this advice to be general to all server software, in which case
I would have to disagree.. :)
