The long answer is - Don't use large static groups. Use dynamic groups or find another way to denote and enumerate group membership. The short answer is - no, there is no way to page through a list of attribute values. VLV only works on entries. I think there have been internet drafts written to address this problem (www.ietf.org - search I-D - Internet Drafts). But AFAIK no DS vendor has implemented any of these. > > > Leo
