    We may do that. The reason for using FC3 over RHEL3 is that the version
    of OpenLDAP included with FC3 is fairly recent and it just works. That
    makes life easier for non-experts such as myself. If I end up having to
    build it from source, I will, but I would prefer to avoid that if there
    is an easier solution that will work just as well. Which is why I
    wanted to get some feedback about Fedora on this platform. To help me
    make an informed decision. Appreciate the help.
