Patrick, I am still unable to figure out what is the cause for the clients to time-out on LDAP connection. Is there nay performance tuning that I am unaware of? What is appropriate timelimit for search/bind/idle? To give some idea, we roughly have ~300 users and 600 servers. Is there a timeout settings in 389-ds?
