It seems FDS implements something similar: an extended control to be sent along with the bind request/response (see RFC 3829, OID values 2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.15/2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.16 in attribute supportedControl of rootDSE). Currently python-ldap does not support this control though. Patches for python-ldap welcome. ;-) Ciao, Michael.
