Do you have any insight into what could be causing this behavior?  I
have not found the answer yet through extensive searching of the
internets.

Hi Douglas,

The answer lies in the slapd.conf(5) man page, in the description of the "limits" directive, specifically in this portion:

"sets the limits for any DN listed in the values of  the  at  attribute"

memberUID does not contain a DN, therefore it cannot be used. Hope that helps!

Quanah
