dynamic groups

[Tom J. <tj...@do...>]

Hey Folks,

I'm trying to get a handle on dynamic groups (and groups in general), and
have a few questions:

1. Is the concept of a dynamic group a netscape-only feature?

2. Netscape's docs state that dynamic groups are of the type 'groupOfURLs'
with the actual group membership criteria listed in the 'memberURL'
attribute. Is it the client's responsibility to expand this URL into a
list of dn's? If so, what happens with big groups where the number of
entries will exceed the searchlimit?

3. Does anyone have suggestions for handling groups where the group
population is potentially quite large ( > 10,000 members)?

4. Is anyone aware of any practical limits on the number of members in a
group?

Thanks much,
