Re: Extremely slow connect process and setnet32 processing

I've answered my own question and thought that others may run into the same problem. When I configured my client to access the 7.2 server, I set INFORMIXSQLHOSTS variable to a file name on my pc (C:\\informix\\etc\\sqlhosts). I suspect that Informix doesn't expect such a long filename causing some corruption in memory resulting in these bogus DNS searches. In fact, after I cleared the INFOMIXSQLHOSTS variable in setnet32, setnet32 did not do any DNS calls and came up right away. The connect times also went back to normal. All seems to work without the variable being set at all. Thanks again for the help Jerry
