You could randomly generate ID numbers. But you probably asked how to determine the highest stored ID. An interesting approach was proposed by Kurt to use the server-side-sorting control to let the server return LDAP results in reverse order and use searchlimit=1. Of course your server has to support that control. The caveat is that you cannot (re-)assign IDs if you have some gaps. It works good when you have continously assigned IDs. Don't forget to use slapo-unique to enforce unique IDs within the LDAP server. Ciao, Michael.
