the problem can be that Outlook use SSSVLV controls on attributes without ordering rules in OpenLDAP. Unfortunately, the 'name' attribute has no ordering rules, so you can't sort results on name (this includes, cn, sn, gn attributes, because they inherit from name). We do not have this limitation on AD (but it breaks LDAP standard).

Mark,

Could you be more specific which LDAP standard it breaks? Is there an explicit prohibition for the 'name' attribute to have ordering rules? In the RFCs somewhere?
