Hey Warren,
Not sure how your code works, what language you're using, or whether or not you
are doing an ADO search. But if you are, then when doing ADO searches I have
found that you need to enable paging to be able to retrieve large numbers of
records correctly. Setting the "Page Size" property to say 100 makes a big
difference between my scripts working in large AD environments or not. But they
never fail in the smaller environments. I've never bothered to do a record
count to understand what the limitations are when using no paging. It's just
one of those "best practice" type things I ensure I enable when writing a
script to do an ADO search.
Maybe I'm well off topic, but it's something that's caught me off guard before.
Cheers,
Jeremy.

How many users are in your AD? I have been told the my utility will stop
searching at a certain number (around 2000), although I have never seen it
myself.
