Hello,
in our Environment we have three Domains in one Active Directory Forests. Each Domain has two DCs. In one Domain i want to configure an Webapplication to (ldap) query the global catalog for Informations from another Domain.
For testing purposes i tried to query by simple Linux-Ldapsearches, which works fine most of the time. But there is my Problem. It does not work reliable, because sometimes the ldapsearches take about 1 Minute. These long running Queries seems to be the reason which makes my Webapplication time out.
My assumption is, that these long running queries appear, when the DCs from this Domain replicate (I checked the times with repadmin /showrepl and it looks like there is an coherence.)
Our Windows Guy cant help me out, so i hope somebody here does have experience in this field. Is it ok to use the Global Catalog for this requirement? Why is this happening? Has somebody ideas for further troubleshooting? It would be nice to use the GC, because if this works i do not have to use an LDAP-Proxy for this.
best regards
Stefan
