I had some need of the kind with back-sql, and I implemented a specific layer that allows to rewrite the DN outside of its string representation to comply with SQL odds. A general interface could be interesting, but I fear the impact on performances; it should be totally transparent if not required, much like overlays right now. p. -- Pierangelo Masarati mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] SysNet - via Dossi,8 27100 Pavia Tel: +390382573859 Fax: +390382476497
