Hai Elizer Sorry, im not fully agreeing with Amos here.. If you DNS is taking 7-10 sec, i would investigate why the dns is that slow. Something is off, that simple. A small example of my dns resolving to internet and my lan dnsservers. time dig a www.google.nl @8.8.8.8 @internet dns real 0m0.115s real 0m0.031s @lan dns, lookup 1. real 0m0.016s @lan dns, lookup 2. (cached one) So, in my opinion 7-10 seconds timeout is really off. In the last we.. Is the lan dns set as an authoritive server. Are the pc's correctly registering in the dns with there primary DNS domain. in resolv.conf make sure the primaryDns domain is first in resolv.conf primary.dnsdomain.tld = output of $(hostname -d) search primary.dnsdomain.tld (optional extra, other.dnsdomain.tld dnsdomain.tld ) nameserver 192.168.1.1 nameserver 192.168.1.2 nameserver 192.168.1.3 nameserver 192.168.1.4 nameserver 192.168.1.5 # these are the options to look into also. ( in this order ) options edns0 # allowed 4096 byte packages. options rotate # if you have more then 1 dns server this can help. options timeout:3 options no-check-names # dont check for invalid characters such as underscore (_), non-ASCII, or control characters. Check the following. - the DNS server tries to query first to the internet. fix might be, resolving (search line) in /etc/resolv.conf ipv4 / ipv6, try disableing ipv6 on the windows clients. Dns is Non authoritive where it might be needed to set it to Authoritive. Dns server is missing forwaring to the authoritive server. Routing and routing orders Are EDNS (4096bytes) big packages allowed And is the firewall allowing UDP and TCP packages on port 53 I run 3 samba-AD dns servers with Bind9_DLZ My proxy runs a Bind9 caching and forwarding setup. The primay DNS domain is forwarded to the Samba-AD dns server. These are the Authoritive servers. This is on average my slowest querie 0.1-0.2 sec ( on the samba dns ) i checked the last year in my monitoring. Normal is 0.03-0.01 sec If there are problems in samba these days its 80% of all cases a resolving setup problem. I hope this gave you some ideas.
