RHEL, CentOS 8 no longer includes the OpenLDAP server. After the demise of
CentOS 8, successors like AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux have incorporated OpenLDAP
in the additional repositories, but the easiest route is to use the packages
provided by the [LTB project](https://ltb-project.org/download.html),
which also has the latest OpenLDAP for Debian and Ubuntu.

* On Ubuntu, install `slapd` and `ldap-utils`.
CentOS 7 is EOL, as is OpenLDAP 2.4.x. Use at least version 8 of RHEL and its
derivatives, and OpenLDAP 2.5 or later.

* On CentOS 7, install `openldap-servers` and `openldap-clients`.
* On Ubuntu, install `slapd` and `ldap-utils`.

* On CentOS 8, configure the [LTB yum repository](https://www.ltb-project.org/documentation/openldap-rpm.html)
* On RHEL/Alma/Rocky, configure the [LTB yum repository](https://www.ltb-project.org/documentation/openldap-rpm.html)
and install `openldap-ltb`.

* Whatever the distro, install `make`.
