Ok, as most fo you know, because of my incesent questions, I have my server, with the hook-up to the pre-existing database. When ever I do user logins it takes forever, and usually causes the client to disconnect without returning results to the roster . On looking at the debug, error, stderror and stdout, I have come to the reason for this. WIldfire is getting a complete listing of users attempting to gather users from the LDAP database I guess to populate or update the pqsl database. Ok, I can see it wanting to update entries, but I have over 23K users in this database, hence you see my issue. Althoguh at presnt this is on a test platform, it is a rather nice medium end machine, and it is still taking forever for the updates to happen, sometimes 25 minutes. I must find a way to limit what is being searched updated and cached or I will absolutely not be able to use Wildfire as my IM solution. Ldap is eDirectory, and the IM service (the ability to login in I mean) is controlled through attributes placed on accounts. I have tried all ideas, scripts, thoughts that I can find in the forum here, but cannot find a hook, or switch to limit the searches to the attribute “accessIM”. search filters are not working, or I am not setting them up correctly. alternateDN isn’'t working because when I point it to the group drectory, it will not allow login. THose of you that have helped no the issues I have been having with this, but If I cannot find a solution that will not only limit searches to IM users only, and cannot find a way to strictly allow only users the have the attribute to loing in, then I will have to go back to Jabberd, or ejabberd, as they can do this (my s8 install does it for me now). Any ideas are helpful, but the ideas already laid out in the forums were tried by me yesterday and today without success.
