WHOOPS! This is a lot nastier on second read (though not supported, it
is /provided/):

"389-ds
The 389-ds packages provide the core directory services components for
Identity Management (IdM) in Red Hat Enterprise Linux and the Red Hat
Directory Server (RHDS). The package is not supported as a stand-alone
solution to provide LDAP services.

More information can be found here:

The supported usage of 389-ds and 389-ds-base packages in Identity
Management in RHEL and RH Directory Server"
