There must be a good reason for this, but I would have thought the users' role info would have been cached at a higher level somehow... </what I know of the internal workings of the Zope security scheme can fit in a small dixie cup > Bobb wrote:

I did get things going last night, to a point where my NT Groups are acting as Local Roles, and I can authenticate to my PDC, but it is really, really slow.
how far away (hops) is the PDC? is there a BDC closer?
Time to do some analysis really. Sounds like you needs some caching at

points... What userfolder are you using?
