BUG: '[ERROR 16]: No such attribute' when connected to Microsoft Exchange 5.5

SYMPTOMS

Every time you try to browse the Microsoft Exchange 5.5 directory, you get '[ERROR 16]: No such attribute'. The only ones you see are the target entry attributes, but no sub-entries are fetched.

CAUSE

Some popular LDAP servers allow you to pass a special reserved LDAP_NO_ATTR ("1.1") parameter to the 'ldap_search' function in order not to retrieve attributes as a search result. The MS Exchange 5.5 LDAP server implementation does not support this parameter. This problem is present in LDAP Browser and LDAP Administrator version 2.1 (build 160) and version 2.2 (build 205).

WORKAROUND

To work with MS Exchange 5.5, please upgrade to the latest version of LDAP Administrator.
