Installing OpenLDAP
OpenLDAP software is an open source implementation of Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol and can be obtained from the site: http://www.openldap.org.
To install OpenLDAP packages:
1. Verify the Red Hat Linux installed releases. The release number is stored in the
/etc/redhat-release file.
2. Verify the version of OpenLDAP currently installed by entering the command rpm -qa |
grep openldap
at the Linux prompt.
# rpm -qa |grep openldap
openldap-2.3.xx-x
openldap-clients-2.3.xx-x
openldap-servers-2.3.xx-x
3. If you have a default Red Hat Linux installation, there is at least one OpenLDAP Red Hat
Package Manager (RPM) installed.
The LDAP RPMs can be found on the Red Hat CD or downloaded from one of the
following RPM download sources:
• www.rpmfind.net and search for openldap and select the RPM based on the
distribution
• www.redhat.com and select Download, and then search for openldap
4. After downloading the RPMs to the Linux server, change to the download directory and start
the installation using the rpm command:
# rpm -ivh openldap*
5. Verify that the OpenLDAP RPMs have been installed with the rpm -qa | grep openldap
command at the Linux prompt.
# rpm -qa | grep openldap
openldap-2.3.xx-x
openldap-clients-2.3.xx-x
openldap-servers-2.3.xx-x
