Sounds like an intriguing way to find the highest uidNumber, but 1. it doesn't seem to work: > ldapsearch -x -W -z1 "(uidnumber<=65534)" uidnumber # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <dc=tu-clausthal, dc=de> (default) with scope subtree # filter: (uidnumber<=65534) # requesting: uidnumber # # search result search: 2 result: 0 Success text: inappropriate matching request # numResponses: 1 (Yes, I have an equality index on uidnumber, and my bdb Database contains that index, and I used 2.4.5 for that query) 2. who guarantees that due to indexing the highest uidnumber will be returned? Could it be that it is just because OpenLDAP is currently coded to do it that way? Is there a RFC requiring OpenLDAP to do so? bye Christian -- Christian Marg mail : mailto:marg@rz.tu-clausthal.de Dezernat 2 TU Clausthal web : http://www.tu-clausthal.de D-38678 Clausthal-Zellerfeld fon : 05323/72-2107 Germany jabber: ifcma@jabber.tu-clausthal.de
