Hi

We are experiencing a performance problem when communicating with the active directory using System.DirectoryServices. DirectoryEntry.Invoke("SetPassword", new object[] { password }) sometimes takes 15 seconds. The Service that makes the call is running on the same machine. What could make it that slow?

Cheers,
