Thank you again to everyone!I have set unix_group_enable: 0   and, for good measure, leftnsswitch.conf set to "group: files" instead of "group: files nis" The difference in server performance is: total. I am seeing IMAP response time of 0.1 second instead of 10 seconds - I keep looking at the log

Ugh, that would be bad news. Except, I think the delay is happening earlier. The delay is between the A001 login and A001

2006-10-05 Thread Elizabeth Schwartz
Is anyone happily running all of the above? All of the above except NIS? Any tuning hints?I'm running Solaris 10 (06/06), cyrus 2.3.7 (Blastwave build) , sendmail 8.13.8 (ditto), mailspool on a zfs filesystem, authenticating via NIS.
