please re-read my message. I explicitly said I did this to provoke an

severe error that the IOC must report this five times, when (IMHO) once

would have been enough ;-)

My apologies for not completely reading your message, however the IOC is

merely reporting the error every time it occurs, i.e. once every time

the CA client retries the name search. Your client gives up searching

after trying for 1 second, during which time there are 5 searches. If I

ask caget to wait 10 seconds, I get rather more messages.

Throttling the duplicates not a trivial problem however; it would be

simple to remove the message completely (see src/db/db_access.c), but I

can see it being occasionally useful to track down errant clients.
