> If I use a search filter with unknown attribute type, like (blah=*), ApacheDS returns an error code 16:
> $ ldapsearch -h localhost -p 10389 -D "uid=admin,ou=system" -w secret -b "ou=system" -s one "(blah=*)" dn
> ldap_search: No such attribute
> ldap_search: additional info: NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE: failed for     SearchRequest
>         baseDn : '2.5.4.11=system'
>         filter : '(blah=*)'
>         scope : single level
>         typesOnly : false
>         Size Limit : no limit
>         Time Limit : no limit
>         Deref Aliases : never Deref Aliases
>         attributes : 'dn'
> : OID for name 'blah' was not found within the OID registry
> Expected behavior is an empty result set. I have checked this with other LDAP servers (OpenLDAP 2.3, Sun DS 5.2, Tivoli DS 6.0), which behave like that. 
> RFC 2251 states "The present match evaluates to TRUE where there is an attribute or subtype of the specified attribute description present in an entry, and FALSE otherwise (including a presence test with an unrecognized attribute description.)" (section 4.5.1).
> The more recent RFC 4511 states "Servers MUST NOT return errors if attribute descriptions or matching rule ids are not recognized, assertion values are invalid, or the assertion syntax is not supported." (section 4.5.1.7. SearchRequest.filter)
