2.3.1.96 nsslapd-security (Security)

This attribute sets whether the Directory Server is to accept TLS/SSL communications on its encrypted port. This attribute should be set to on for secure connections. To run with security on, the server must be configured with a private key and server certificate in addition to the other TLS/SSL configuration.

2.3.1.97 nsslapd-sizelimit (Size limit)

This attribute sets the maximum number of entries to return from a search operation. If this limit is reached, ns-slapdreturns any entries it has located that match the search request, as well as an exceeded size limit error.

When no limit is set, ns-slapdreturns every matching entry to the client regardless of the number found. To set a no limit value whereby the Directory Server waits indefinitely for the search to complete, specify a value of -1for this attribute in the dse.ldif file.

This limit applies to everyone, regardless of their organization.

NOTE:

A value of -1on this attribute in dse.ldif file is the same as leaving the attribute blank in the server console, in that it causes no limit to be used. This cannot have a null value in dse.ldif file, as it is not a valid integer. It is possible to set it to 0, which returns size limit exceeded for every search.
