Fedora directory users - Mar 2009 - LDAP Unsolicited Notifications

Hi all,

Does Fedora Directory Server support unsolicited notifications?

According to 
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jndi/ldap/unsol.html, I need to 
"prod" the server in a directory dependent way.

Does anyone have any information about what this means, practically?

Regards,
Graham

Why do you need unsolicited notifications?

Assuming I am understanding them correctly, to receive results of a long 
running search, including changes made at some point in the future, so I 
don''t need to poll for updates.

That sounds like the persistent search feature of Fedora
DS.

I found this, which describes persistent search for C and perl:

http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:Persistent_search

Are there any APIs that do persistent search for Java that are known to 
work with FDS?

I don''t know what Java support there is, but any persistent search API 
will work with FDS.

Yes, JAVA JNDI supports persistent search.  We use it with Fedora Directory
with no problem.

The tutorial can be found here
