So I added the controls, but they don't seem to be working. We are getting a error code 53 (unwilling to preform) when we add the control to our request, so assuming there is something wrong with the control, but don't know enough about ldap or the library to know what. Any ideas on what to try or what might be wrong?

FTR, the code I provided yesterday night in one of my previous mail took me around 30 mins, all included. For a more complex control, like syncrepl, that would have takne a bit more time, mainly because you want to add unit tests to cover teh various cases. Now, I think that we should provide a bit of documentation about how to implement a control... -- Emmanuel Lecharny Symas.com directory.apache.org
