Hello Friends, I am using a 'ldapsearch' command from Ubuntu machine to fetch entries from SunOne directory server hosted on Windows machine. I am able to retrieve the records but not all. At one stage it aborts abruptly and throws following error - ldap_search: LDAP Adminstration Limit Error Any pointers on what this error is all about and how can I get rid of it?

The number of results exceed the configured limit for a request. (?)

Write a script in Python, or something like it, with LDAP support so you can page the request.

Maybe ldapsearch can page for you? I don't recall.

Yes, see the ldapsearch(1) manpage.
