Yeah, but what about the rest of the LDAP ports? I know I could check all, but... First there was the gd thing, who btw does not recognize the freetype port or something, then libmcrypt, now this. Aarrgghh!! I'm - so what else is new - on a too tight schedule <g>. With hindsight that is. > Since one would expect that v2 would be backwards compatible with v1, then > you should probably be safe installing v1 and then installing v2 on top - > that way you get v1 shared libraries, which I believe is all mod_php4 will > use. Now it uses the v2 libs <g>. That I checked in the PHP4 README's. I just patched the Makefile.inc, it works. I would've just liked to patch beforehand, not behind the fact. Installing two possibly conflicting ports make me nervous. Who knows what side effects lurk in the dark? > If you've got other programs that rely on the v1 API, utilities or static > library, then you most likely will run into problems due to API changes. Yeah, well, the PHP4 docs do talk about LDAP v2, so...? What do I know, I'm just an ice cone salesman! But one who wants to run v2 *only*. If that means waiting for next versions of PHP4 to cooperate with it, so be it. *That* can wait <g>. LDAP v2 cannot and no way do I want to end up, somehow, reading v1 docs thinking it to be v2 docs. Been there, done that, didn't like it. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.
