Hi All,

I have the sun directory server v6.0 On Solaris 10 platform and have 50,000+ 
entries in the directory server. The search-time-limit (nsTimeLimit) set for 
the server (and not for individual account) is 6 mins.

While performing search operation using the APIs (ldap_search_ext&  ldap_result), 
when the server is heavily loaded by other applications, the search doesn't return all 
the relevant/expected entries. When this happens, the server reports the err=3 (i.e. 
search-time-limit exceeded) error in access log. However, both the Mozilla SDK APIs 
used i.e. ldap_search_ext&  ldap_result do not propagate this error to the client 
application; instead it returns success code.

Am I missing anything here? How can get the correct error code (err=3) when the 
search-time-limit on server side exceeds. Or is it the expected behavior of the 
Mozilla SDK APIs used?

Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
// Rahul

Does the ldapsearch command line tool return the correct error code? If so, take a look at the source code for that tool to see how it processes the error code returned from the server.
