Full_Name: Eric Herbaut Version: 1.2 OS: Solaris and NT URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ Submission from: (NULL) (195.25.228.65) We are building an LDAP client application based on the sample clients provided in the ldap/clients/tools directory. When we try either our application or the original sample clients on public directories such as BigFoot, WhoWhere, ..., we only receive partial results to our search requests. For BigFoot, we receive 40 entries. For WhoWhere, we receive 100... On a local directory, we receive a full list (if there are 500 entries matching the filter, we get 500 entries in result). So apparently, the public LDAP directories place a limit to the number of entries they return. Netscape Search and Outlook Express Search display the same problems and return only partial results. I have seen an application (EmailFerret from FerretSoft - www.ferretsoft.com) that manages to retrieve more entries than the limit placed by the server, apparently 10 by 10 until there are no more results. How can this be done ? How can we retrieve full search results when the server returns only partial results ? Thanks in advance.
