                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-410
             Project: Directory Studio
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
            Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
            Priority: Critical


The way referrals are handled in the server is problematic. 

There is a mix between JNDI and plain LDAP (ManageDsaIT control usage). 

Beside the fact that one should be able to select the way referral should be 
handled on each request (it's painful to have to disconnect when you change the 
global property), for people used to deal with JNDI, the 'manage' option does 
not make sense.More than that, 'manage' defaults to 'ignore' (which is plain 
OK, so far), but the 'ignore' option is not activated.

I would suggest that we switch to 'ignore', 'throw' and 'follow' instead of 
'follow', 'ignore' and 'manage'
