There was a problem hiding this comment.
Not that I know Netware (apart from admining 3.x servers about 1000 years ago), it seems complete and non-netware builds pass.

The latest copy I could find at: https://beta.novell.com/developer/ndk/ldap_libraries_for_c.html is from 2016-Feb-03, available for Linux and Windows. It comes with `OpenSSL 1.0.1q-fips 3 Dec 2015` binaries. I built curl against the Windows package with CMake. CMake identified it as OpenLDAP and built it as expected: ``` curl 8.12.0-DEV (x86_64-w64-mingw32) libcurl/8.12.0-DEV Schannel OpenLDAP/2.4.37 Release-Date: [unreleased] Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher gophers http https imap imaps ipfs ipns ldap ldaps mqtt pop3 pop3s rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp ws wss Features: alt-svc AsynchDNS HSTS HTTPS-proxy IPv6 Kerberos Largefile NTLM SPNEGO SSL SSPI threadsafe UnixSockets ``` Since it identified it as OpenLDAP (`lib/openldap.c`), the branch deleted in this PR (`lib/ldap.c`) wasn't reached. Thus, defining the `CURL_HAS_NOVELL_LDAPSDK` also made no difference in the build. This suggests the code guarded by it is now orphan and unnecessary. Novell NetWare builds were another user, but we dropped support for them in 2022: 3b16575 curl#8358 Let me know if I missed something and there might still be used for this.
