Disk full, 15GB of logfiles containing timestamps



We've encountered a issue where openldap seems to be writing huge volumes of logs for authentication failures.

Having freed up some space and run `db_recover` (which cleared out the log files), then restarted openldap, it's again written ~120MB of logs for 200 failed authentication requests.

The log files are almost entirely timestamps:

OpenLDAP: slapd 2.4.40

Any ideas why this is happening?
