OpenLDAP RPMs

Introduction

LTB project provides 7 RPMs:

  • BerkeleyDB
  • OpenLDAP
  • OpenLDAP contributed overlays
  • Check password policy module - check_password (deprecated)
  • Password policy module - ppm
  • Overlay explockout
  • OpenLDAP debuginfo

We try to keep package up to date with the latest OpenLDAP version.

Our RPMs includes:

  • SSL/TLS with OpenSSL
  • SASL (including SASL passwords)
  • All overlays
  • HDB/BDB backend
  • MDB backend
  • LDAP backend
  • META backend
  • SOCK backend
  • SLAPI support
  • CRYPT password
  • TCP wrappers
  • LTB-project OpenLDAP init script
  • LTB project check_password
  • LTB project ppm
  • Overlay explockout
  • Logrotate script
  • Preconfigured DB_CONFIG
  • MDB utils
  • Schema expose (SLAP_SCHEMA_EXPOSE)
  • SHA2 and PBKDF2 password schemes
  • Contributed overlays:
    • lastbind
    • smbk5pwd (without Heimdal Kerberos support)
    • autogroup
    • nssov
    • noosrch

The installation is done under /usr/local, in order to avoid conflicts with existing OpenLDAP installation. In particular, we do not touch the ldap system libraries, which are linked in by many other programs.
