Hi Buchan, I built the OpenLDAP server myself, and it's dynamically linked to the shared library libdb-4.3.so provided by db4-4.3.29-9.fc6. My platform team is actually trying to get our Linux vendor to upgrade the library and they are asking for the details. I guess if that fails I can try a static build with the upgraded library, but we are in a space constrained environment and try as much as possible to use dynamic libraries.

I run OpenLDAP on a > RedHat platform that ships with BDB 4.3 But, does the OpenLDAP package on that "platform" (would you not prefer to provide a version instead?) actually link to the system BDB 4.3 ? $ rpm -q openldap-servers openldap-servers-2.2.13-4 $ rpm -qR openldap-servers|grep db-4 libslapd_db-4.2.so $ rpm -q --whatprovides libslapd_db-4.2.so openldap-servers-2.2.13-4 So, it's linked to an internal copy of 4.2. BDB version may not be your biggest problem. BTW: http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/rhel4/openldap/ Regards, Buchan
