#2 Ident service fails to respond

[Anonymous]

When a fast browser such as Mozilla 1.3 or IE6 is
hitting the squid proxy, and squid is doing an ident
lookup for every get/post/connect request, some ident
queries will fail. It appears that this ident service
either rejects the connection, or simply doesnt respond
to that particular ident request.

The only systems that seem to exhibit this symptom are
the fastest boxes we have - P4 2Ghz systems.

The clients are NT4sp6a, and Win2K all running NetWare
client 4.83sp1.
