I've just set up a couple of directory servers in multi-master mode. I've installed fedora-ds-1.0.2-1.RHEL4.x86_64 on RHEL AS 4. Occasionally, some of our searches have been failing a timeout error (err=3) despite not taking any time at all (etime=0). It's not consistent either; repeat the exact same search again and it succeeds. The dn we are binding to has an "nstimelimit" attribute set to "-1", so that shouldn't be an issue. I tried to set the "nsslapd-timelimit" to "-1" in the dse.ldif file (as documented in the Configuration, Command and File Reference manual) and got the following error when I tried to start up the server: dse - The entry cn=config in file /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-connie/config/dse.ldif is invalid, error code 1 (Operations error) - nsslapd-timelimit: invalid value "-1", time limit must range from 0 to -1 Trying to set it from the java console reports the exact same error. There doesn't seem to be a way to set unlimited timelimits. Has anyone else noticed either of these 2 issues? Timelimit errors with 0 elapsed time and inability to set an unlimited timelimit for the entire server? -- Robert T.
