Hello!
I just joined this mailing list, so I apologize in advance if this topic
has already been covered.
Red Hat and Suse announced they are no longer supporting OpenLDAP in future
releases.

withdraw-support-for-openldap/
However, we mainly use CentOS and while it's a RH derivative, I wanted to
find out what CentOS plans on doing in this regard.
Will you continue to include OpenLDAP or will it simply be removed?
I wasn't able to find any CentOS related articles in response to this, and
the only thing I did find that said CentOS hasn't released whether they
will continue to support it or not is from two years ago?

Any updates/feedback/information is appreciated :)
Thank you!
In addition to Johnny's feedback, here's my 2 cents. On the OpenLDAP
mailing list users with problems with RHEL/CentOS provided OpenLDAP have
been advised for years to use the latest OpenLDAP RPMs from
https://ltb-project.org/ or from https://symas.com which also provides
paid support.
The OpenLDAP version included in RHEL 7 (and thus CentOS 7) is 2.4.44
which is missing a ton of fixes compared to upstream's latest release.
tl;dr use the latest RPMs from the LTB Project or Hymas.
BR, Patrick
