I'm in the initial stages of putting up a directory server that will
include faculty, staff, and students. I want to prevent directory
trolling by putting a size limit on the number of entries that can be
returned as the result of a search. I tried setting it from the default
2000 to 20 but when I did that, Netscape Console would no longer
function correctly (I guess because it searched the directory for config
info), even if I used "cn=Directory Manager" to bind with. Is the
global slapd.conf parameter sizelimit the only way to limit searches?
Can I protect the directory from being trolled (like by someone
submitting a search of (uid=*)) and still have Netscape Console
function? I am running 4.13 under Solaris 2.6. Thanks for any advice.
