Re: ldapsearch limit of 500 entries

Thanks Jason,

I resolved this issue by adding:

olcSizeLimit: -1

to the etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config.ldif file.
You are not supposed to manually edit the config database files. You should have fed your change in to the running slapd using ldapmodify.
cn=config is a slapd database. It will very likely migrate to an LMDB backend in the future. Don't get the notion of manually editing it into your head, because it won't be possible. 


and then restarting slapd.
There is no need to restart slapd to make configuration changes, if you do them correctly - i.e., using ldapmodify. 


Now works!

Note that this will replace any existing limits you have set.

My ldapsearch command is only returning a max of 500 entries, while I know I
have over 9,000 entries in the database.  If I do not have a slapd.conf file,
how can I increase the sizelimit, to display all my entries?
