This is the expected behavior: ldapdelete provides no means to
automatically chase referrals.
actually i m using ldap_delete_ext_s() for deleting an entry.
You mean: delete the referred object (chase the referral) or delete the referral object (the reference to the real object)?
If you mean delete the referral object, the answer is: yes, but you need to use the manageDSAit control (RFC3296).
If you mean delete the referred object by automatically chasing the referral, the answer is: yes, but you need to register a means to rebind to the referred host, implementing your own rebind procedure and registering it using ldap_set_rebind_proc(3) as appropriate.
Can u sent me any example of second case means how we can register referred host and our own rebind procedure?
One more thing
*Can this ldap api ldap_modify_ext_s() be used for updating referral entries
?*
Same as above.
