I don't know about ApacheDS but when you ask the server for the empty DN, it
should return you the RootDSE.
In the RootDSE, there is an attribute (called something like managedContexts)
which hold the DNs of the root entries of the directory (there can be multiple
root entries). Then you can make a search on these entries with subtree scope
to get all subentries.
Yes ApacheDS will serve up the RootDSE and you are correct.

Hi all,
I'm trying to get the list of the whole entries in DIT like this:
SearchControls ctrl = new SearchControls();
ctrl.setSearchScope( SearchControls.SUBTREE_SCOPE );
NamingEnumeration e =
ctx.getFactoryConfiguration().getPartitionNexus().search(
new LdapName( "" ),
ctx.getFactoryConfiguration().getEnvironment(),
new PresenceNode( "objectClass" ), ctrl );
But this fails because ApacheDS cannot find an entry without a name:
An LDAP directory can master several disconnected trees. Hence it is
not one big tree. For example I may have the following subtrees served
by the server:
dc=example,dc=com
dc=apache,dc=org
dc=safehaus,dc=org
All these contexts represent separate separate trees of entrys which you
cannot search from the root. A DSA (Directory Server Agent) will list
these contexts in the RootDSE in a multivalued operational attribute
called 'namingContexts'.
You need to list these contexts within the RootDSE and search each
separately using a subtree scope search.
HTH,
Alex

Any ideas?
