To install Micro Focus OpenLDAP libraries and utilities

Because many UNIX systems include a version of OpenLDAP, the OpenLDAP libraries and utilities supplied by Micro Focus are not installed into the $COBDIR/lib and $COBDIR/bin directories at product installation. Instead, they are installed to $COBDIR/lib/openldap and $COBDIR/bin/openldap.

The configure_openldap script can be used to enable or disable the Micro Focus supplied OpenLdap utilities.

Depending on whether the utilities are currently installed or not in $COBDIR/lib and $COBDIR/bin, you will be prompted to install or uninstall.
