Good to know, and Ive made a note of it for future reference.
Two things I found odd about the whole thing though:

1) I used the same ./configure options in RHEL4 and it worked with whatever LDAP
 comes with it. But I had to specify the 'lib' and 'include' options in RHEL5
 (Not to mention I did not have to use the included apr in RHEL4)

2) Prior to using the 'lib' and 'include' options in RHEL5, the error_log
 kept stating "Unknown Authn provider: ldap" -- even though it was compiled
 in and visible via "httpd -l". A bit misleading.





Thanks
