I hesitate to go on this divergent path but I was never convinced that
Red Hat has opened their heart to openldap... RHEL 3 after all shipped
the ancient 2.07 version and RHEL 4 continues to languish with a
partially broken 2.2.13 and only recently have they finally tried to
integrate a broken but commendable effort of openldap & kerberos in FC-4

Thus - the OP was trying to get an openldap installation up to speed.
