Ok, there are no partitions except for the master partition, and all the
serves is connected to a Cisco 5000 switch.

I would like to get ridge of 3 of the replicas, but yesterday, I was told
that they(my customer), is talking of downing 3 of the servers with replicas,
which would eliminate the need for creating extra patitions.
As for Adv. Administration/Design and Implementation, I've done the last of
them, and know about designing larger NDS systems, but if the problem has to
do with the network, it would do absolutly nothing to create some extra
partition, actualy it would do more harme than good.
My next step is to get in contact with Novell Dsseldorf, and see if they
have some ideas.
