There is an openldap in the CentOS Testing repo for centos-4 that will
work with centos-5.
It has a compat-openldap-<c4_version> for the things that are compiled
against the c4 version ... and i am using it in production and syncing
c5 and c4.
However, it is a couple updates behind.
The version is openldap-2.3.27-4.el4.centos
Thanks,
