Hi Malcolm,
that is very strange and obviously is something that shouldn't be
happening. The only time that I have seen behaviour like that before
is in a situation where the Real Servers where under extreme load.
I think that your idea To extend the checktime and checktimeout
is sounds. However I am curious to know if you think that
the Real Servers are genuinely taking more than 5 seconds to
respond or if ldirectord is spinning out of control for some reason.
If it is indeed a resopnse time problem with the Real Servers
then you may want to consider setting checktype to connect
rather than negotiate. I would imagine this effected less by
a Real Server that is responding slowly for some reason.
