Does Splunk LDAP intergration support LDAP Extended Controls? In particular Matching rule OID 1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941 which is a special "extended match operator that walks the chain of ancestry in objects all the way to the root until it finds a match.

I've tried implement this in my ldap strategy, but Splunk pukes; however, if I pass the same LDAP query listed in the AuthenticationManagerLDAP logging channel using Apache Directory Studio it works fine.

Thanks in advanced,

We have done this, and it does work.

Here is an example of what we did.
