Getting * from a directory.

[Pete <pl...@oz...>]

Hi everyone,

Every now and then I have a need to delete all entries from a 
directory.  The problem is though that the directory server is set to 
a maximum number of entries to return.  Setting the server to a 
larger number isn't the answer.

What I need to do is search on sn=*, which returns an error, 
something like too many entries to return, I need this to do this to 
get the DN value to delete all the entries  

Reading through the doco it doesn't appear there is an inbuilt 
capability to do this.  I'm sure this could be another exercise in 
programing to do the task, but not re-inventing the wheel is prefered 
lately.

Thanks in advance,


Pete.
