RE: Access is slow when accessed by IP address instead of 'localhost'

Dinesh,

 

If accessing the Apache machine from other machines on the network is slow you may have a missing reverse lookup entry in your DNS.  To test you might try the following from one of the slow machines.

 

nslookup (hostname where Apache is installed)

nslookup 192.168.1.2

 

The results from the two commands should match.  Another test would be to add the 192.168.1.2 host to the hosts file on one of the slow machines and see if response time improves.  Good luck.

This is resolved - an entry for 192.168.1.2 in the hosts file did it for access from the *same* machine.  Now, I'm trying to check how to resolve the slow response time when accessed over the LAN.  

Thanks to Adam & others who responded.

Regards,
Dinesh.
