Using MeetingPlace Directory Services Administrator interface with large directories
After importing a large directory, you may like to see the directory in the MeetingPlace Directory
Services user interface windows. It is hard for the interface to show all of the detailed entries. You can try
using “list” mode by clicking “view” in the toolbar, then clicking “mode” and then “list”. This means that
the user interface window will only display the DNs of the entries (without the attributes) resulting in a
search that returns much quicker. You can also increase the search timeout. This is done by using the
ADUA (click on “tools”, then “options”) or by editing the NT Registry. Contact your support
representative or installation specialist for more information on editing the registry.
