Hi-

I was thinking of contacting support, but before I do I was curious if anyone else has encountered the following situation:

We're still (sigh, but this is changing as we migrate off of it) using NIS. We thought it made sense to use the built-in functionality to make the filer (a 3020) act as one of our NIS slaves for redundancy and performance reasons (so it wouldn't have to query off box). That seems to work fine, but for some reason the yppush of the data from our master takes a much, much longer time to return from the filer than any other of our nis slaves.

Has anyone else encountered this issue and dealt with it? I realize that we could go the vaudeville route ("Patient: Doctor, my arm hurts when I move it this way. Doctor: so don't move it that way." but I was wondering if there are other solutions (options, etc) that we should try first?

Thanks!
