Announcing 389 Directory Server version 1.2.9.6 Testing

[Rich Megginson]

The 389 Project team is pleased to announce the release of 
389-ds-base-1.2.9.6.  This release has fixes for bugs found in 1.2.9 
testing and bugs from earlier releases.

NEW: EL6 support

Beginning with RHEL 6.1, the 389-ds-base package is included in the base 
OS.  It is the same as the upstream, except that it has no replication 
nor windows sync functionality.  That has been split off into a new 
channel - Enterprise Identity Replication - and a new package - 
ds-replication.  Therefore, the 389-ds-base package can no longer be 
provided via EPEL, due to RHEL/EPEL packaging restrictions.

However, the 389 Project will still make the full 389-ds-base package, 
including replication/winsync, available via 
http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/rmeggins/389-ds-base.  See 
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Download for more information.
