Thanks for the suggestions and code examples. I'll work on adding this new control and let you know if I have any issues.

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
