When TIMEOUT is set and happend to occur there is nothing that shows that
we
timed out. For example if you do a large/slow LDAP search using ldapsearch
and
then stop the conversation between slapd and ldapsearch by "killall -STOP
slapd"
then ldapsearch will terminate after TIMEOUT seconds and it will return
the
number of records that it got so far and exit with return code 0 and not
error
message. I'd expect that after TIMEOUT occuring that we get a warning and
a
return code != 0
libldap's ldap_result() sets ld_errno to LDAP_TIMEOUT but returns 0, so
ldapsearch (and all tools) are fooled by not actually checking ld_errno
(actually, ldap_get_option(LDAP_OPT_RESULT_CODE)).
