As I am aware, there are two ways of handling the referrals available. As per the 1st one, the LDAP server returns the referral information to the client and then the client contacts the referred server on its own. This is standardized in the LDAP specifications also. As per the 2nd one, the LDAP server itself contacts the other LDAP server(where the data is located) and returns the response to the client. This is called as 'referral chaining'. I would like to know why 'referral chaining' is not yet standardized. Was it because of the later introduction of the ''referral chaining' concept after the LDAP standard formulation was completed, or because of some technical reasons?
