Hi,
 
    I was curious to watch some LDAP referral traces (OK, so it's been a quiet day) and am seeing some results I don't understand among different tools.  The queries are issued from within a child domain to a DC in that same domain, searching for an object in another child domain (root + two child domains total).  Not using the GC.
 
    LDP chases a referral (if I turn that option on) and returns an object from the other child domain in the forest.  Search call type tested was ASYNC.
 
    DSQuery, after getting an initial  referral to the other domain, reissues the query to a root DC but includes the LDAP_SERVER_DOMAIN_SCOPE_OID control in that search, so then it gets no more referrals to the other child domain.  Not sure why it does that?
 
    ADFind starts off looking good but unbinds and ends the session after getting referral references for the other NCs.  Not sure why it doesn't continue to chase.
 
    I realize I should be providing more info and/or traces.  I will be glad to, but just wanted to save some space first and make sure I wasn't missing something obvious?
