Take a look here: https://github.com/apache/httpd/pull/438 The key change is that the new apr-ldap API is 100% asynchronous, with helpful patterns to make it easy to use in synchronous code like present httpd. The intention is that future code will allow us to have an LDAP connection controlled by the MPM, with "guest" requests added by httpd requests and removed by pool cleanups. This is useful by anybody, not just httpd. RFC1823 is 30-ish years old, we're not exposing this old API any more. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1823.html Regards, Graham --
