Hi all,

I'm having problems with People Picker using a non windows LDAP.
I have all users indexed, so, I'm sure that the username and pwd are OK and
the account have the read permissions. But, when I try to search new users to
add them to a group using de People Picker, I can't find them, either using
the "username" attribute or their "name", "preferedname", "email address" and
so...
The SharePoint logs says "System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
(0x80072024): The administrative limit for this request was exceeded."

I have tried configuring the properties:

peoplepicker-nowindowsaccoutnfornonwindowsauthenticationmode set to "yes"
peoplepicker-activedirectorysearchtimeout set to "60"
peoplepicker-searchadcustomfilter set to "search for users with a valid
email and name"


but, I'm not sure if these commands can be used for an LDAP configuration,
in fact, every time I press the "search" button it only takes 25 seconds to
show me the message "No results has been found..."

I have included into web.config (of the web app and Central Admin) the "key"
that I've found on this blog post
http://sharepointhawaii.com/wenhe/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=4 and I've added
the "timeout=60" proprety inside the Authentication Provider where the LDAP
connection is defined without success :(

Do I need to configure differents commands to use these kind of LDAP?
Can anybody help me.... please!!!

Thank you all! (and I'm sorry for my english, I'm still learning)
