ADSI ADO - Open fail with "name limit of network adapter exceeded"
This one is bizarre. The Exchange LDAP server has a limit on the query
result size and if you make an LDAP query whose results are too big, it
simply gives up. Unfortunately, the ADSI designers decided to convert this
into a similar, but different, error code which displays as "The name limit
of the local computer network adapter card was exceeded". Stupid. It is
*nothing* to do with the network adaptor.
Reconfigure LDAP server on exchange to raise this limit (ask Exchange
administrator) or re-write the LDAP query to request the names in smaller
chunks (if appropriate).
