Re: slow ldap authentication

[bluethundr <bluethundr@gmail.com>]

Hi list,

 It's been a few days and I just wanted to check back to see if anyone
had any troubleshooting tips that might help to solve this situation
that I'm dealing with as I'm still a relatively new LDAP admin. I
really appreciated your advice in the past and have overcome some very
significant technical hurdles with your assistance on a number of
occasions.

 Thanks in advance!and I would like to wish you a belated happy new year!

Tim
