the old version (3.0) used to be free with every valid Solaris license.
but i can't see how OpenLDAP can compete.. I clocked OpenLDAP vs iPlanet5
last night and guess what:

OpenLDAP 2.0.11 on a PIII-1000MHz (RH7.1, kernel 2.4.8) only got 36
queries/second and 3 (that's
THREE) updates/second.

iPlanet 5.0 on a USIIi-440MHz (Solaris 8) got 50 queries/second and 33
updates/second. The query time is not that much higher, but the UPDATE
time is one ORDER OF MAGNITUDE faster. And I *need* that update speed.
