Re: ldap_search_s hangs with ms active directory

["Sankhadip Sengupta" <sdsgupta@cs.utah.edu>]

Thank you sir.I understand what you meant.I did set the option and the first 
search returned immediately.But the 2nd search took a long time.I do not 
know how to seperate this search reference or to explicitly handle 
this.Could you kindly provide some sample code ( a few lines) or a pointer 
to any, so that I can get a better insight into this?

Thank you and I appreciate your help,

Sankhadip
