Speeding Initial Context

Question

Our applet is taking about 2minutes to get the initial context. Does anybody have any ideas for reducing this response time considerably? Any help will be much appreciated.
Enviroment:
We're running weblogic5.1 on the Solaris 2.6 box using JDK1.2.2.

Answer 1

I have exactly the same problem. We are experiencing a
getInitialContext() call taking between 30 and 60 seconds. The DNS is
fine - pinging the server machine responds instantaneously. I have seen
this problem reported before but have never seen a fix posted.
Here's our code:
static public Context getInitialContext(String
userName, String password, String providerURL) throws Exception
Hashtable h = new Hashtable();
h.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
"weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
h.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, providerURL);
if (userName != null)
h.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, userName);
if (password == null)
password = "";
h.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, password);
return(new InitialContext(h));
Can the WebLogic people get involved please?
Thanks,

That sounds like it might be a DNS time-out issue. Make sure the client
can actually find the server by name.
