Will the ITS#4707 patch (ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/openldap-2.3.27-bindaddr.patch.txt) be merged into 2.4? And since this patch only handles one IP address, further change will be necessary to support a list of IP addresses.

And that is true, we added ldap_init_fd() which lets the caller setup their socket any way they please. commit 1f635b8bcfaaac666005a88a5620e9798c9565e1 -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/
