Thanks Rainer
I've attached a log recorded during one of these failing connects for
TestUser. We stopped IIS, set logging to trace, cleared the log, started
IIS, attempted one connect, then stopped.

Unfortunately I don't have direct access to the failing site, but have
been trying to resolve this for some time now so hopefully have already
collected anything that might assist in pinpointing the problem.
Note that we copied the Windows account of a failing user, then started
stripping Windows groups. The starting point was over 150 groups. When
that user was dropped to 69 it started working. Adding back another
group brought back the failure. Other users with up to 90 groups could
connect, but some with 50 could not. Group complexity (maybe even name
length) definitely has an impact so it's not necessarily 'death at 70'
but each test users has a working number that fails with the addition of
one.

First we should check, whether it is really a header size issue. We
should be able to verify that by logging a failing request done by one
of those users with log_level trace. Please do not log a lot of
requests, because trace log level produces very much output. Especially
it logs the packets which get send to the backend, so we can see,
whether the headers are to big.

I hope you have a system, where you can do such a test?

Rainer
