[solved]

You were rith about the  backwards compatibility issue , the older
libraries would be liblber-2.3.so.0 and libldap-2.3.so.0 ........  .

i was chking out the cent os dev  maillist archives for this
particular issue and foud that Jeff Sheltren 	 created  the src rpm
the link here http://staff.osuosl.org/~jeff/openldap/

i jsut did a rpmbulid again the created spec file and it creates  rpm
called compat-openldap-2.4.11_2.3.27-1.3.el5.i386.rpm that does the
magic :-D

less compat-openldap-2.4.11_2.3.27-1.3.el5.i386.rpm
