Ldap_search: LDAP Adminstration Limit Error

Hello Friends,

I am using a 'ldapsearch' command from Ubuntu machine to fetch entries from SunOne directory server hosted on Windows machine.

I am able to retrieve the records but not all. At one stage it aborts abruptly and throws following error -

ldap_search: LDAP Adminstration Limit Error

Any pointers on what this error is all about and how can I get rid of it?

Cheers,
Parag

By default a normal user can only return a limited number of entries from the Sun DS. I believe the default is 2000 entries. You can have the Sun DS administrator change the nsslapd-sizelimit to allow all entries to be returned for any account or have them setup your account with attribute nslimit, so that only your account can retrieve all the entries.
