Error in ldapsearch??

[Klinger C. <ckl...@ec...>]

Hello List

The Problem:
I make some LDAP Queries (Zope External Method) over a large network!
Sometimes i got a "good" result but sometimes i got the error=20
"Can=B4t contact LDAP-Server"!

Is it possible to get over on a "timeout limit"=3F
Is it possible to trace something=3F


Do you have any tips for me=3F

Thx in advance

Christian
