RE: [ActiveDir] stupid ldap queries

[Lee, Wook]

I never understood why Microsoft chose not to index objectclass by default. I indexed it in our directory as soon as we got the go ahead from Microsoft that it was supported. That was years ago.   Wook   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Desmond Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 11:50 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] stupid ldap queries   No. isMemberOfPartialAttributeSet just means that the attribute is replicated into the GC. Being in the GC does not imply that the attribute is indexed. There’s an attribute (I think “isIndexed”) which says the attribute should be indexed in the database.   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matheesha Weerasinghe Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 2:15 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] stupid ldap queries   bummer! I meant adfind -schema -f "&(objectclass=attributeschema)(ismemberofpartialattributeset=TRUE)" ldapdisplayname -list On 4/18/06, Matheesha Weerasinghe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: sorry that was meant to be adfind -schema -f "&(objectclass=attributeschema)(ismemberofpartialattributeset=T RUE)" ldapdisplayname -list   On 4/18/06, Matheesha Weerasinghe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Thanks for the reply. In that case why does adfind -schema -f "&(objectclass=attributeschema)(ismemberofpartialattributeset=T RUE)" ldapdisplayname -list returning objectclass amongs the others? Doesn't this mean objectclass is indexed? The reason I ask is because I wanted to make sure I didn't write stupid ldap queries that load up the server. I am still learning so please be patient with this n00b.
