Re: dynlist-overlay and requesting an attribute

Hi, one last question.

What is the technical reason, that a compare alone works and a compare in a search filter fails?

Compares for member DN work because the overlay is used the other way round, namely entries belonging to the subtree specification represented by each URL are looked up until a match is found. This is explicitly intended to support dynamic group membership checking the right way.
