How to intercept LDAP Search operation when using DelegatingAuthenticator

Hi,

I am using a Delegating Authenticator to delegate the authentication to external LDAP. But when search operation is performed it's not going to the delegating LDAP. Is there a way we can intercept the search operation when  using delegating authentication.

Thanks,
Prem

No, and for one good reaon : the delegating Authenticator is only used
when a Bind operation is received. The idea is to forward the
authentication to an external system. You don't need to authenticate
when doing a search.

Whay are you trying to capture the search in this case ?
