4. ldapServerStatus.jsp correction
The ldapServerStatus function lets you access the IM server to verify that connection between the IM server and the configured LDAP server(s) is working. This feature has not worked for some versions but is now corrected.
5. ThisDN enhancement
The ThisDN feature has been updated to support queries of any attributes that an object holds.
If you, for example, open a group and like to list only users that has a value in an attribute (e.g. carLicense) that match the value of an attribute on the group object (adminDescription). In this scenario an LDAP query could look like:
(carLicense=ThisDN(adminDescription))

Sort order
In previous version the sort was AA, BB, CC, aa, bb.
This is now updated to AA, aa, BB, bb, CC
Attribute to execution on
In previous version the controls executed on the visible value in the control and not the value that would be stored. This is now change so the value to store is what the control will execute on.
Support added for more columns to MultiListStringControl
If you in the search result set like to present more columns than one, this is now possible. For example, both CN and Description can be available. This feature has been available for some time for the MultiListControl but not the two others.
