Fixed In Version: openldap-2.3.43-12.el5_6.5 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Prior to this update, the libldap library did not provide the ldap_init_fd() function, even though certain utilities such as cURL rely on it and could not work properly as a result. This update applies a backported upstream patch that implements this API function, so that these tools can now work as expected.
