Issue ID: 10356 Summary: Openldap -> Chasing the referral is not proceeding further after 3 referrals Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.4.56 Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: libraries Assignee: bugs@openldap.org Reporter: hharshitha2797@gmail.com Target Milestone: ---
Hi Team
I have an issue with OpenLDAP 2.4.56. Chasing the referral only yields 3 referrals; the user login does not proceed further to other referrals. This issue is seen in CentOS with OPENSSL 3.0
In OpenLDAP 2.1.22, the same is working; here, OpenSSL is not used. Here OPENSSL 3.0 is not used. We can see around 8 referrals here.

--- Comment #1 from Howard Chu hyc@openldap.org --- OpenLDAP 2.1.22 was broken, it was supposed to limit referral chasing but didn't. That was ITS#3578, fixed in 2005. OpenLDAP 2.4 works as designed. There is no bug here.
