In particular, you don't get any of the financial crypto verbs without a Crypto Express. The standards do not allow banks to perform functions like those unless they are executed in a physically and logically secure crypto device.

I'm not an NFS expert but we do have NFS to Windows and HP/UX, for us once the server is backup and a connection is requested on the 'Z' side the mount is re established, or we run the automount for nfs, but that's really not necessary for one server connection. Carmen Vitullo -

Thanks Gord, but: I don't think that a slow DNS lookup is the problem. - The call that I'm making doesn't even do a lookup AFAIK. - The lost time, according to the resolver trace, is before my getaddrinfo() api call even starts. It appears to be something that happens during initialization of

NFS Mount Failure
