I should probably put this somewhere else than just where it is 
(http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/OpenLDAP.repo), but it does contain this 
information:

# 1)Save as /etc/yum.repos.d/OpenLDAP.repo
#   wget http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/OpenLDAP.repo -O 
/etc/yum.repos.d/OpenLDAP.repo
# 2)
# RHEL5: 
#   yum upgrade openldap-servers
# or
#   yum install openldap2.4-servers
# RHEL4 and older: 
#   yum install openldap2.3-servers
# or
#   yum install openldap2.4-servers
# Install libhoard or lib64hoard for a better memory allocator

If you download the RPMS individually, you need to do something like:

rpm -Uvh libldap2.4_2-2.4.11-1.rhel5.i386.rpm 
openldap2.4-2.4.11-1.rhel5.i386.rpm

(these two packages are inter-dependant, so they must be upgraded together).
