I built the latest 2.4 kernel, but LDAP won't run with that kernel (more 
precicely, the BDB backend won't start and slapd seg. faults). So that's a 
non-starter.

I guess I'm back to square one. The system won't operate in SMP with the FC 
kernel and won't operate at all without a FC kernel. So it looks like Fedora 
is snafu'd.

Unfortunately, RH9/RHEL3 don't have the version of LDAP I require, and when 
I tried an upgrade to openldap I started getting FUTEX locking problems.
