Which browser are you using? Most allow you to extend that well beyond the 1000 limit.
the appliance should be configurable to handle more than 10,000. Conceivably, any search can return well more than 10,000 from a GC. Depends on how the search is executed of course. Apparently, it uses ldapsearch as it's testing mechanism. Have you tried the queries with that? Al On 5/10/06, Harding, Devon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Is there a search limit on Global Catalogs? The problem I could be having is that this Symantec appliance is limited to a 10,000 object search. When I use LDAP Browser/editor, it returns only 1000 entries. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe Sent: Monday, May 08, 2006 5:22 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] LDAP queries I am not familiar with the device, does it pull the objects locally and keep in some sort of cache or ??? Note that you will need to be searching the GC port to find anything since you have stuff across multiple domains. So find the way to specify port and say 3268 (or 3269 if you want SSL but lets get it working first. :o) Now as for the queries.... A query to find all users (i.e. not contacts) who are exchange enabled (both mail and mailbox enabled) you would do something like (&(sAMAccountType=805306368)(proxyaddresses=*)) or (&(sAMAccountType=805306368)(mailnickname=*)) either should perform about the same. For non-Exchange enabled groups which is what *I think* you are looking for in the second query (&(grouptype=*)(!(proxyaddresses=*))) or (&(grouptype=*)(!(mailnickname=*))) ...should be similar perf. For exchange enabled groups (&(grouptype=*)(proxyaddresses=*)) or (&(grouptype=*)(mailnickname=*)) Again, should be comparable... joe -- O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition - http://www.joeware.net/win/ad3e.htm ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Harding, Devon Sent: Monday, May 08, 2006 4:24 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] LDAP queries I'm using a Symantec Mail Security 8260 appliance that used LDAP to prevent Directory Harvest attacks. The problem is, the built in queries is causing an issue with adding the LDAP server. We have an empty root with several child domains. Here are the queries: Query start (Sync base DN): DC=domain,DC=com User query: (|(mail=*)(proxyAddresses=*)) Group query: (&(!(mail=*))(!(proxyAddresses=*))) Distribution list query: (|(mail=*)(proxyAddresses=*)) My question is, what other LDAP filters can I use instead of these to accomplish the result of querying for user SMTP addresses & distribution groups?
