scope, and filter?
Yes. Exactly the same. The only difference is the search control for server-side
sorting over sn. With this control :
[09/Dec/2008:16:55:59 +0100] conn=3826 op=3 SORT sn;2.16.840.1.113730.3.3.2.11.1 (59)
[09/Dec/2008:16:55:59 +0100] conn=3826 op=3 RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=40
etime=0.004000 notes=U
