Hi guys,
as I'm trying to remove the JNDI SearchControls from our server, I found
three different methods that do a search in the server :
- search
- lookup
- list
All those three operations semantic is not exactly clear to me. Let's
try to see if they are all useful, and what the semantic is or should be
for each of those operations.
It almost sounds like the original X.500 protocol, where List is a separate
operation from Search. And I would expect Lookup to simply be a base-scope
operation, i.e., here is a DN, give me the entry.
