Thanks for doing the above. What about your idea where you'd like to have different socket timeouts dependent on what we're doing? Or Todd's idea of being able to try a DN replica and if its taking too long to read, move on to the next one quick? To do this, do you think we'd need to get our fingers into the DFSClient in other areas? Good stuff, St.Ack
