Hello,

We have an installation of OTRS 3.1 with KIX4OTRS lastest for the version
running on CentOS 5.9, mysql and apache, using LDAP Auth on Windows AD 2008.

Few months ago we started to see intermitent connection problemas to AD
Server, eventually it was narrowed down to when a normal search or a custom
report was run.

System logs only showed that there was no connection with AD Server and
with no reason after a while connection was regained.

Finally we found out that the antivirus was detecting our connection
attempts to AD Server as DoS and it was blocking our OTRS.

What we see is that everytime a ticket is looked for or a search is run,
the system sends hundreds of requests to the AD Server, especially when
querying customer info. We have seen this happening in all other systems
with AD, but this is the first time it gets blocked.

Antivirus was Trend Micro and after stoping the antivirus the issue
stopped.

We have other instances running on different environments and haven't seen
this behaviour anywhere else. So we are wondering if this could have been
that the antivirus parameters were to sensitive or if our instance was
sending more requests thant expected by the AD Server.

Has anyone seen this kind of issue.
