I suggest that before you delete an object, if you do not know definitively that it is a DN (as distinct from an alias), you should do a read fo the object class, prohibiting alias dereference. This will unambiguously show if the entry is an alias or not. If the user says "delete", the UA should make this check first. I don't think that this is a problem here. Am I missing something? Steve
