Doesn't that return the size of this particular page, rather than the server estimate of the total number? I could be wrong...

The paged control response object has a 'size' method which should return the value, so (following the example in the Net::LDAP::Control::Paged perldoc): While (1) { my $mesg = $ldap->search(@args); $mesg->code and last; my $resp = $mesg->control( LDAP_CONTROL_PAGED ) or last; my $size = $res->size; ... } This may need documenting (in the doc mentioned above), especially if it works.
