Hi all,

Running openldap v2.0.27 under Redhat v7.3, we have encountered
tremendous reliability problems.

Openldap doesn't die, it just stops accepting new connections - LDAP
clients complain "LDAP server timed out". The LDAP server and client are
on the same machine, so network is not a problem.

Is openldap v2.0 worth using in a production environment? Is v2.1.12 any
better?

No, but 2.1.16 is. That is why it is labeled the "stable" release. It does need a small fix to slurpd (a one character change to properly terminate a comment) for slurpd to work correctly however. Why would you be looking at 2.1.12? It was just announced to the list recently that all versions from 2.1.5 to 2.1.15 have a serious DB corruption problem.
