chase-referral

Enables chasing of referrals from an external LDAP server resource

An LDAP referral is a controller or service platform‘s way of indicating to a client it does not hold the section of the directory tree where a requested content object resides. The referral is the controller or service platform‘s direction to the client a different location is more likely to hold the object, which the client uses as the basis for a DNS search for a domain controller. Ideally, referrals always reference a domain controller that indeed holds the object. However, it is possible for the domain controller to generate another referral, although it usually does not take long to discover the object does not exist and inform the client.

This feature is disabled by default.
