Hi Howard,
Thanks for your answer. I am new to using OpenLDAP but it was set up by my colleagues and he said the OpenLDAP version from repo is not well updated. So, regarding the Persistent Search, The reason I asked is that I am switching from Classic ActiveMQ to ActiveMQ Artemis. And Artemis has this setting:
" enableListener. Whether or not to enable a listener that will automatically receive updates made in the LDAP server and update the broker's authorization configuration in real-time. The default value is true ."
And In the ActiveMQ Artemis log, I (and also some other cases i found in google) got this error: " ERROR [org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server] AMQ224086: Caught unexpected exception: javax.naming.OperationNotSupportedException: [LDAP: error code 12 - critical extension is not recognized]; remaining name 'ou=Destination,ou=ActiveMQ,ou=activemq,dc=test,dc=com' "
This is not the problem with classic ActiveMQ where I found in their documentation, saying that OpenLDAP does not support the “persistent search” feature. That's why I wanted to verify. https://activemq.apache.org/cached-ldap-authorization-module [image: grafik.png]
Is there something extra I need to configure on OpenLDAP to have this feature enabled for such kinds of cases that a client like ActiveMQ Artemis can register to get live updates from OpenLDAP (instead of having to restart the service)? If yes, could you send me a link to how to set it up?
I also found this issue regarding implementation of persistent search on OpenLDAP https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8983

Yes.
I installed version 2.4.46 from Rocky repo and it does not seem to support persistent search.
OpenLDAP's syncrepl replication protocol has supported persistent searches since OpenLDAP 2.2 in 2003.
Still, if you're using OpenLDAP for the first time you should use a newer, supported release. 2.4.46 is from 2018, and the 2.4 release stream has been deprecated for quite a while now.
