[Freeipa-users] ipa user-find

[Steven Jones]

Hi,

How do I bind as the directory manager?  Ive tried and I cant figure out how.

and how do I get the web ui to return all users so I can see if the winsync is working , its a test bed so I need to do a side by side comparison....

regards

There are two size limits. One is a global limit in 389-ds-base,
nsslapd-sizelimit which defaults to 2000.

IPA has its own search limit which you can also set globally, or
override it on the command line (which I'll do below).

You'll need to bind as Directory Manager to change nsslapd-sizelimit
then you can run:

ipa user-find --sizelimit=8000

I don't believe any services need to be restarted for this to take effect.

We generally discourage enumerating all entries for performance reasons
which is why by default the IPA size limit is 100.
