I am working on the issue from the VMware end, Let's see if I can get them to understand that their current OpenLDAP solution is unusable and needs to be updated. ______________________________________________________________________________________________

At some point, it should be a matter of pride for the directory services to add functionality that clearly there is a demand for. I understand a lack of resources, but this looks more like a lack of overall desire when you look at the completely lack of attention this type of stuff gets in Bugzilla. Having said that, it is pretty strange for vCenter to have LDAP requirements and lack of instructions/testing with hardly any third-party LDAP solutions. That kinda defeats the purpose of supporting an open standard. In any case, at least there is a solid answer. This would be one worth just putting in the FAQ or on pages referencing vCenter that is basically unsupported and will not be worked. -- Chris
