Setting this in my slapd.conf in the database section has no effect:

 limits dn.base="uid=syncrepl,dc=qmul,dc=ac,dc=uk" time.hard=none
size.hard=none

The imposed size limit seems to be set by the global sizelimit directive. The
slapd.conf man page states otherwise.

Also, as a test, I tried changing it to:

 limits anonymous size.hard=none

These searches were also limited by sizelimit.

Kind regards,
Martin.
