installing openldap23 or 24 is a no go

[bluethundr]

Hello, I am attempting to install openldap on freebsd 8.1 but unfortunately the port install is erroring out.

[root@lbsd8-1:/usr/local/etc/openldap] #:portinstall net/openldap23-server
[Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 631 packages found (-0 +1) . done]
[Gathering depends for net/openldap23-server ........ done]

===>  Cleaning for openldap-client-2.3.43

===>  openldap-client-2.3.43 conflicts with installed package(s): 
      openldap-client-2.4.18

      They install files into the same place.
      Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).
*** Error code 1

I am _very_ new to bsd. Can someone please help me over this hump?

From what you posted, you are having a conflict with the 2.4 openldap that appears to already be installed.

More specifically, openldap24-client is already installed. pkg_delete it if you want to install openldap23-server.

success

pkg_deleting the old version worked. openldap is installed. thanks for the tip!
