Hi,
We are looking at extending the allowed length of passwords we allow people
to
use (the theory being that a short phrase is easier to remember than a shorter, but arbitrary string of characters). But since we use our ldap server for authentication to a whole host of online tools, including
several
portals, I need to know the max length of the source password when doing a
bind.
There are no maximum lengths in LDAP. Limits imposed by other applications depend on the particular application.
Right, but what about typical input buffer lengths in the openLDAP tools (like ldapsearch)?
Thanks, Rob
