Re: Capacity of openLDAP

I noticed Novell eDirectory, they sell per entries the storage space.
For OpenLDAP, does this mean it has no limit the entries it supports. It
merely depends on the hardware where we would store the OpenLDAP ?

If we have large amount of entries, is it advisable to implement openLDAP by
having a few OpenLDAP configured ?
