| | | (for example, with a filter like |
| | | "(uniqueMember=uid=john.doe,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com)") |
| | | when the search does not actually return the membership |
| | | attribute. Although it works to generate the entire set of |
| | | values for the member or uniqueMember attribute, this can be |
| | | an expensive operation for a large group. |
