We are authenticating against sun directory server yet see no errors in the directory server and it seems to be under low load. Any ideas if there is something on dovecot we should tune to erradicate this? We are running a web front end on top of dovecot and hence have a lot of login/logout happening as the user navigates around.

Oh, and enabling auth cache would probably solve this too, since most auths wouldn't go to LDAP then.
