No arguments here with that... I'll have a read through the RFC's and escalate to our hardware vendor.. But I don't like my chances :(
If they don't follow the RFCs, then all bets are off. Who the heck are these people?
Is there any limit on the file size of the clients.conf and how many entries? or it will just take as long as it will take and get re-read each time I HUP the server.
I've tested 2.x with 500K clients. It took ~8s to start the server, and the server used ~2G of RAM. But it worked. You could also try using the "dynamic_clients" module. Put the clients into a subdirectory instead of LDAP. That will solve the LDAP load problem.
Many thanks for your insightful answers Alan :)
