[users@httpd] Using secure LDAP authentication

We are running  Apache/2.2.6  with mod_ssl/2.2.6,  OpenSSL/0.9.7a,  PHP/5.2.4,  mod_perl/2.0.3 and  
Perl/v5.8.5 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4  machine. We also installed the OpenLDAP SDK and the Novell LDAP SDK (our LDAP server is Novell).
We want to use ldap authentication via a remote ldap server that is running in secure mode.

I originally compiled apache with  the follwing options to configure:
--prefix=/WWW/httpd --with-ldap --enable-ldap --enable-authnz-ldap --enable-rewrite  --enable-speling --enable-auth-digest --enable-ssl  --with-ssl=/usr/share/ssl --with-mpm=prefork --enable-so --enable-proxy

If I understand the documentation, in order to use secure LDAP authentication, I have to compile apache with 
--with-included-apr
But how can I specify to apr-util which LDAP SDK I want to use?

Thanks for any information.

Thanks for the answer.  I understand from this, that before I compile apache with --with-included-apr, I must compile APR separately.  We seem to have the source for APR in the apache source directory, but I can't find any instructions for how to compile and install or what the options are to configure.  I checked the APR web site and couldn't find anything there either.
Can anyone point me to instructions on compiling and installing APR.  Thanks.

apr-util configure knows about: --with-ldap-include --with-ldap-lib
