We found (being new to NT) that without an entry in the servers host file (including itself) any client trying to attach to the database had about a 60 second time out to wait through. Once we add the entry things got as quick as our sun 5 we were bench marking with. As with most servers now it will become a funciton of memory. Perhaps some others have some experience with tweaking the shm in NT. Good Luck Keep us posted. Steve Wallick Software Engineer steve.wallick@harris.com
