It's fairly easy to knock a PDC/BDC over if you throw enough authentication requests at it. The key is to do everything possible to limit the number of authentication requests it has to make. Someone mentioned using cookies, which is one way. There have been several discussed over the years on this list. You should check the archives to give you some ideas on how to solve the problem. I found the most success using one of the authentication caching modules. Michael
