Thanks for an excellent discussion guys. As usual, I learned something more than I bargained for. Tom, I understood the implications of changing MaxPageSize, and that’s not an option for us because our directory is too big – as well as for the reasons some of the others pointed out. But I just sent a suggestion to Softerra about adding paging as an enhancement, or to point out how to do it if the capability already exists. If they respond, I’ll share the info.

 

In the mean time, I remembered reading about a nice Excel add-in (Marco’s Excel Management Macro, or MEMM) that does many of the same things LDAP browser would do, and it will allow paging the result set. If anyone is interested, I found it here: http://bink.nu/Article3399.bink

 

Thanks again for the help and advice

I thought by default the max # of records that can be retrieved from a query is 1000.

 

I think you can fun ntdsutil to change this or better yet, if running against win2k, you can use paging.

you set it with ldp.exe and an ldap control( i forget the number).

also with win2k3 you can use VLV

Subject: [ActiveDir] Softerra's LDAP Browser

I’ve been playing around a little with Softerra’s LDAP Browser (the freeware version), and I can’t seem to be able to get it to return more than the standard 1000 records in the result set. The FAQ says to set the entry count limit to zero, but I still only get 1000. Has anyone else used this tool and figured out how to return all records? I’d love to use this thing as an ad hoc query tool.
