SYMPTOMS

A patch has been released for the following Membership Server problems:

  1. The following error may occur when you try to create a group or organizational unit in the directory information tree (DIT):
    Error 0x80070044 "The name limit for the local computer network adapter card was exceeded."
    LDAP service reports Event ID 2502 "DIT Full"


  2. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) subtree searches fail when you try to search 200 or more containers or groups.


  3. When using Membership Directory Manager (MDM), a "Specified base DN not found" error message appears when you add access control entries (ACEs) or members to a group when there are approximately 250 or more groups in a membership instance.


  4. The Internet Information Server times out during DIT caching at system startup, when there are large numbers of groups in the directory service.


  5. Enumeration of containers for groups only goes one level deep.


  6. An access violation occurs in the Inetinfo.exe process when adding an extended number of groups to a security descriptor (user ACL, or access control list) stored on an LDAP directory object.
NOTE: This fix is also required for MAPS.

To resolve this problem, apply the latest Site Server 3.0 service pack.
