That was a stroll down memory lane ;)

Your point of contention more than likely exists in 1 of 2 places:
- directory server
- arserver
note that there are other possibilities, network devices, server farm
configuration, etc.

If you turn on server statistics, you can see if there are any thread
blocking issues with any of the queues.
When this is occurring, use ldp.exe to attempt to perform a query against
the directory.  If the response times out/is slow, you know your problem
exists on the AD server side.

ldp.exe is MS's ldap query tool.

Subject: EXT AUTH - Authentication service not responding

On our Remedy server, in the User.log files we have intermittent logs
showing:

<USER> <TID: 0000004616> <RPC ID: 0000100596> <Queue: Fast      >
<Client-
RPC: 390620   > <USER: Joe User                         > /* Mon Jan 22
2007 12:13:57.7880 */  INFO   EXT AUTH     The authentication service is

not responding.  Cannot connect to the system at this time.  Contact
your
AR System Administrator for assistance.

No one can logon during this time period.  It happens for about five
minutes and now is taking over 15 minutes and not at a consistent rate
(like every hour).

We do have AREA authentication with Cross-Reference blank password, but
I
have noticed this is not an isolated issue with the Domain users as
noted
above with Joe User.


Where can I look for this issue?


I noticed this Authentication uses the FAST threads, hence, we thought
we
could set the Threads up from minimum 2 / Max 4 to 4 and 8 respectively.

Thank you in advance.
