Hello - I have a very vague question, which will probably result in vague answers because I don't have a lot of detailed information and I don't know a whole lot about active directory.

Our Windows/NT admin has been rolling out Active Directory over the past several weeks and as time goes on, there are issues with my Unix servers (UnixWare 7.1.1 - soon to be upgraded to 7.1.4). Users on the Unix servers are experiencing slowness and sometimes their processes "appear" to get hung momentarily, but the servers are running optimally.

I don't know a lot about Active Directory, but I do believe that's what is causing the problems, I just don't know where to begin to find the solution. We have experienced some DNS issues recently and I will make my Unix servers look to themselves for DNS resolution in the near future, so that problem will be fixed.

Does anyone know of common problems with Unix servers on Active Directory domains and if so, what are those problems and what are the solutions, if any?

I apologize for not having more detailed information, but as I said, I don't know a lot about Active Directory and my Unix Admin experience is somewhat limited.

Thanks in advance for any correspondence...

Dave

You will need to explain what, exactly, users were "doing" when "hung" in order to respond to this question.

Were they "logging in?"

Were they "compiling a program?"

Were they "using the net?" If so, what were they doing?

Etc.
