the patch is also available via: http://www.openldap.org/devel/cvsweb.cgi/build/ The version there contains the following documentation: This patch is intended to be applied to Berkeley DB 4.2.52 and, if applied, will automatically be used by slapd(8) back-bdb/hdb. Without this patch the BDB DB_LOG_AUTOREMOVE option will not work, nor will db_archive allow any transaction log files to be removed while slapd is running. The patch can be applied to the BDB source using patch(1) as follows cd db-4.2.52 patch -p0 < openldap-src/build/BerkeleyDB42.patch (modify directory paths as necessary), then recompile and reinstall the BerkeleyDB 4.2 library, and then build and install OpenLDAP Software. The patch should not be applied to Berkeley DB 4.3. Further information can be found in the openLDAP FAQ-O-Matic: http://www.openldap.org/faq/index.cgi?file=44 I am using this patch with my privately built db4.2 and openldap2.2 for several months without experiencing any problems (neither with openldap that makes use of this patch nor with other applications that use db4.2). At Stanford this patch is in use even longer (this is where I got it from) and Stanford's OpenLDAP maintainer who is very active on the OpenLDAP mailing list did not mention any problems at all.
