I have discovered a few things about LDAP:

I can do a search on a name in Evolution and then I get matching
entries.

I also tried the following:

]$ ldapsearch -h exchangeserver -x -s sub -L "(objectClass=person)"

version: 1

#
# filter: (objectClass=person)
# requesting: ALL
#

# search result
Administrative limit exceeded (11)

# numResponses: 1

So, it looks like the LDAP server will only return 11 results.  Is this
correct?
