Looks like that it gets slow when the AuthenNTLM needs to ask the windows domain controller if the user/password is ok. That could either be some dns lookup problems or network or windows performance problems. Can you resolve the names you use on the solaris box? e.g. when you enter nslookup SXPDC nslookup SXBDC how long does it take? The other thing is you have configurated > PerlSetVar defaultdomain eeu > PerlSetVar fallbackdomain eeu but no definition for domain eeu, you shoudl add something like PerlAddVar ntdomain "eeu SXPDC SXBDC" If this still doesn't helps, set PerlSetVar ntlmdebug 1 and send me the httpd error log of a slow request Gerald ------------------------------------------------------------- Gerald Richter ecos electronic communication services gmbh Internetconnect * Webserver/-design/-datenbanken * Consulting Post: Tulpenstrasse 5 D-55276 Dienheim b.
