I'm not sure the pb come from the server.

How can i modify the field "Size Limit" in the search request ?
I've analysed the request with ethereal and my ldap client (evolution)
send a "Size Limit: 100" and my script a "Size Limit: 0"

I do exactly the same searche request (exept the field "Size Limit") with evolution and my script,
evolution get the answer and my script received a "Size limit exceeded".

I've looked in the doc and examples of the library but without any
solution for this.
