Any idea why this is taking 5 seconds on my local machine? I shutter to
think how it would react with an actual NT Domain...

cut from blah.asp :
response.write "<BR> Before the object" & now()
Set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://" & strDom & "/" & LANID & ",user")
response.write "<BR> after it gets the UserObJ : " & now()
-----------------------------------

gives me in the output.. why?:
:
Before the object1/22/2003 9:09:47 PM
after it gets the UserObJ : 1/22/2003 9:10:00 PM

Sorry, I guessed at 5 seconds before I actually put the timers in..
obviously it's longer.. and it makes it a pain when I keep testing it.. and
refreshing ALL the time.. 13 seconds adds up..

Hi,

Binding to objects can take a long time if the domain is
not available. It takes that long to time out. This
explanation only makes sense, however, if you have "On
Error Resume Next". Without it, the script should fail on
the GetObject statement and raise an error.

Once you are authenticated to the domain, it should be
very fast.

Just an FYI...

When I first started messing with ADSI a couple of years ago, it was on a
relatively low end NT4 box (PII 166 w/ 64MB ram) and 5-10 second response
was typical.
