[Fedora-directory-users] FDS and PagedResultsControl

[Graham Leggett]

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
