Hi all,

Still playing with a big database (120k users, 150k computers) I tried to
split my users into a lot of OUs. This increased the database size and I
was not able to finish to add users into the DB because database file has
reached 4GB size which seems to be the limit.

First: am I right to say file
/var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb.d/DC=example,DC=com.ldb has a maximum size
of 4GB?

Secondly: if I'm right about the size limit, why this size limit?

Best regards,

mathias
