Stale RPM's
Software as important as this deserves to be updated more often. It seems I have to hunt around to find recent version of everything LDAP related, and RPM's take forever to get produced.

OS level security integration with LDAP on Linux, what could be better. Even password changing works. LDAP should be integrated into every distribution of Linux so we can leap frog our competition. Soon my Samba PDC (backended by LDAP) will be controlling the NT domain, resulting in one integrated security domain. YES!
