| Hallo,
we are using SSL for our IIS5 (SSL key length 1024; Pentium 3.0GHz, 1024MB
RAM) for a short time. We only use it for a few applications. From inside our
company network the access on this sites is quite fast but from outside it
takes ages - We're talking about minutes to even show the first page!
I've finally tried to disable SSL for all directories and only set the
login-file to SSL-require. That had no effect - other pages than the
login-page seem to use SSL anyway. It takes exactly the same time than before.
What can be the reason for that and how can I solve this problem?
Merry Christmas and thanks in advance,
Lynky

| Who issued the certificate that is being used? Perhaps the client is
attempting to contact the CA (eg to retrieve a CRL)?
To correct the "all pages using SSL" problem you have below, you need to
code your links off the SSL secured page so that they use http:// explicitly
Cheers
