I moved to ICS 2006.1 over the weekend. I have a couple of questions, but want to provide a little bit of background first.
I am running a dual 3.06 GHz Xeon machine, 2 GB RAM, four 73 GB 10k SCSI hot swap hard drives in RAID 5 with a configured hot swap spare, Windows Server 2003 SP1 with up to date patches from Microsoft. I have over 11,000 user accounts on a single domain on this box. I found the KB article about changing the number of accounts visible in the administration tool, so now I don't get the error message that initially generated and I am able to see more than 1000 users. ( http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-20051229-DM07.htm for anybody else that needs it ) The web-based administration is SLOW when I need to get in to access the users. I have had to raise the ASP script timeout in IIS from the default to 900 seconds in order to avoid timing out when trying to generate the user list for the domain. Obviously, this is not optimal for a variety of reasons. Since the IAdmin.exe file has been unfortunately done away with, and the user list generates on the first page when clicking the "Manage Users" link ... what other option do I have for getting account maintenance done in a more reasonable time frame? What about an option to have the users show up "paged" rather than a full list, in groups of say 500 (prefer configurable) at a time instead of everyone for your entire domain? -or- What about having the ability to get to the edit, delete, search option page FIRST and have the full listing of your accounts be available as a link to a subsequent page? Can we get an administration program back that sits on the server instead of relying explicitly on the information delivery via HTTP? The application defaults to timeout after twenty minutes, so even if I pull the page up and let it sit I can't let it sit very long without exposing security issues because of upping the timeout limits to unreasonably high numbers. I realize I may be the oddball fish in the sea here, but this is a big time priority issue for us. I'm having a very difficult time getting anything done "real time" when people call with issues. It's twenty minutes from the time I hang up the phone ... Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.
