Hi Graham,

From your last email about event notification, it seems like you're using JNDI.

Take a look at the JAVA API document on javax.naming.directory.DirContext.
There's a method called search which takes a SearchControls object.  Within the SearchControls object you can set search count, timeout and search level (onelevel, subtree, object)

Hi all,

Normal users on the directory are subject to an administrative limit as to the size of the result sets returned, which in our case has defaulted to 50.

I have to periodically query the directory and have all results returned, in order to perform an operation on all users periodically.

As I understand it, I can achieve this using the PagedResultsControl (in Java), which returns results in small chunks rather than one big blob.

When I try to use this control, I get the error:

LDAP: error code 12 - Unavailable Critical Extension

I understand from this error message that the paged control is not supported by FDS?

Before trying to get PagedResultsControl to work, I need to clarify at the outset: Am I approaching this the right way?

Is there an alternative method I should be using to return large result sets, without being forced to receive all results in one big blob, triggering administrative limits?

Regards,
Graham
