Does cu=sequence appear as an attribute in all entries below
   cu=sequence,cu=DA350_XX0,cu=codice,.....

Only the RDN (the first part of the DN) has to appear as an attribute  
in the entry itself.

Filters only compare actual attributes, not parts of the DN. Which is  
why you only
see the one entry returned.

Using a base of "cu=sequence,cu=DA350_XX0,cu=codice,..." and filter on  
(cu=*) will get all entries below cu-sequence that have a cu attribute
