Hello all,

Am at my wit's end. I followed all the instructions for setting up the
Solaris-specific directory entries, and I actually *got* the native
Solaris8 LDAP client to work (although the automagic configuration did NOT
work, I had to do things by hand).

The problem is, as I mentioned earlier, lookups take FOREVER (but they
eventually succeed; still, not something suitable for enterprise
deployment). Maybe that's why the iPlanet LDAP server is so fast.. because
it NEEDS to be.  =(

I built PADL nss_ldap on Solaris 8, using the provided LDAP libraries
(these are equivalent to the Netscape ones, or am I wrong?) instead of the
OpenLDAP devel libraries that I used before, and I still get the problem:

if I "finger" a uid which is close to the "top" of the directory, it
returns gratifyingly quickly.. (much faster than the wretched Solaris 8
native LDAP client) but if the uid is "farther down" in the directory,
Solaris immediately returns a "no such user."

I don't think this is the fault of the LDAP server (OpenLDAP 2.0.11)
because with a Linux LDAP client it functions perfectly!!

Any further insights would be VERY much appreciated.
