I'm using OpenLdap and I want not desist .. but I need get random entries from a search result or a list ..

I was reading and this could be implemented by a control, what you think ?

Like paged control result, it most efficient that this functionality reside on the server, but maybe you think that it not necessary .. or inefficient

If you agree I can develop it, with your help because I'm not familiarized neither a little ...

The problem it's that I'm very hurried, this is a critical issue that I need solve to continues with the system that I'm designing ..otherwise I will need replicate some data to SQL ...

Will be complicated develop this control ?

I note that hurry, criticality of issues and null familiarity with a solution cope quite poorly. In any case, controls implementation rather belong to openldap-software, as being LDAP an extensible language, all you need is exploit the client and the server APIs. So please, direct further discussion to the openldap-software list.

As far as I can tell, your real issue is that it's not entirely clear what you need. In such case, I'd recommend you to seek the assistance of expert advice. I mean: professional advice.
