Description Terje Røsten 2011-09-30 17:00:08 UTC 
Description of problem:

Seems like opeldap is built without tcp_wrappers support in RHEL6.

Is that by design or a bug?

I believe RHEL5 openldap packages had tcp_wrappers enabled?
Comment 2 Jan Vcelak 2011-10-04 09:14:10 UTC 
I can confirm that this is a regression between RHEL-6 and RHEL-6.1. It was brought in by package rebase.

The fix is easy:

Why do we need it?
Comment 5 Terje Røsten 2011-10-04 10:02:33 UTC 
Well, in RHEL5 I used it for access control.

Of course the server supports ip based acl and there are always iptables available. However, at least the change must be documented.
