We had this all over out network as well. Delayed telnet replies, at least in our environment, were caused by bad reverse DNS lookups back to the client. It is a "feature" of the telnet daemon on our Sun servers. We are still running an NT 4.0 Domain. I am running DNS on the ISA server. Resolve windows machines via WINS is turned on in the DNS service. Creating proper reverse lookup zones (PTR) in DNS was also critical. In otherwords, it all boiled down to not having a "healthy" DNS environment on the network. ----- Original Message ----- From: "[ISAserver.org Discussion List]" <isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "[ISAserver.org Discussion List]" <isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, September 16, 2002 6:18 AM Subject: [isalist] Re: Time Taken high http://www.ISAserver.org Time Teken in Isa server Telnet 10.85.1.1 3200 < 1 second Time Teken in Windows 2000 Professional with Firewall proxy Client > 30 seconds Marcio monteiro -----Original Message----- From: Jim Harrison [mailto:jim@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, September 15, 2002 11:43 AM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] Re: Time Taken high http://www.ISAserver.org What kind of connection test are you making?
