Hi,
We are using LDAP (MS Active Directory) as the authentication source and to fill in profile fields.
we using the sync_users.php script to pull the users.
The problems are :
* The MaxPageSize is set to 1000 and there are more then 1000 users in the AD
* The client can't change the default setting .
Is there a way to get all the results without changing the default settings?
Thanks,
Rafi
Are you talking about the reference to:
$ldapauth->sync_users(1000, true);
on the last line of auth/ldap/auth_ldap_sync_users.php ?
If so, I don't think that is limiting the number of inserts to 1000, just doing 1000 at a time.
If that's not it, could you reference the exact location? I've searched the code for MaxPageSize but nothing came up.

Hi,
The MaxPageSize is MS AD parameter it's the number of users we get from AD at a time (I should have mentioned it)
The problem is that I cannot change the AD configuration

if you can't change the AD config - are you able to compile your own version of PHP for your server?
There's a PHP bug that is here:
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42060
A fix for this has made it into the Trunk codebase for PHP but hasn't made it into a stable release yet. If you're able to compile you're own version of PHP you could include this fix and deploy it.
More discussion on this fix is here:
http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=28791
If you can't do either then you can't use the sync script.
Just remembered I'd heard something about the php bug recently and looked through the comments/my e-mail history - that PHP bug fix has made it into 5.4 which is great! - so if you're able to upgrade to 5,4 when it gets released (hopefully soon) you might be ok!
- you'll also need the moodle patch mentioned here:

Thanks Dan ,
I think we wait to 5.4 release
if it will be OK with our client.
It was really helpful
