    Applying your personal settings takes upto 15 minutes

    We run GP as well - we run a WSUS server that pushes out updates to every one - so I can't really just turn off GP. Drats!

    Did this DNS settings change fix your problem niallo32? I'm having the same trouble - but DHCP pushes out a local DNS server to all clients (not a ISP DNS server) so I guess our problem is something else. Just wondered if this fix sorted your problem.

    I did a search for this and could not find an answer. This could be due to it being a simple question :) . Lets say I work for Company A. We own the domain and all the emails are directed to our Exchange server. I have an email address of abc@companyA.com. I pick these emails up in Outlook...

    Outlook 2000 'sluggish' with XP SP2

    I'm glad this thread has sorted some peoples problems out - but - it hasn't sorted mine! Has anyone got this solution to work on a Windows2000 environment, running XP SP2 on Dell PCs with Outlook 2000/XP as the clients. I can't seem to get the GP option regarding the firewall to sort our...

    Group Policy Questions

    Morning! I have a few (probably basic) questions regardig GPOs. Can someone help me out. 1) Why does my XP Client have more GP options than the W2K server we have? For example - my XP machine has more Windows Firewall options. Not sure why that is... 2) If I wanted to lock XP machines...

    Outlook 2000 'sluggish' with XP SP2

    Just out of interest - is an Irish Thankyou bigger than an English Thankyou...??? And how come the first part of that KB article works for you and not for us. Did you apply the rule using a Group Policy or manually on the PC? Cheers A

    Outlook 2000 'sluggish' with XP SP2

    Hi Angela, If you search the Microsoft Knowledgebase - and if you look hard enough (and it is well hidden!) there is a article that describes this problem. It seems to be a known problem with Outlook and XP SP2. Its something to do with the SP2 firewall not letting a protocol through that...

    XP Hanging

    Morning everyone. Has anyone come across this problem. Intermittently - our XP machines seem to 'hang' on bootup while the Applying settings/profiles dialogs are on screen. I'd say the majority of the time the dialogs come up then after a few seconds go again and the Windows desktop appears...

    Outlook 2000 'sluggish' with XP SP2

    Can't really describe this as a problem as such - but more of a hinderance. Some of our PCs seem to be having trouble with Outlook 2000 in that sometimes when you send an email (internal or external) the email goes into your Outbox and appears to stay there (the Outbox folder is bold). In...
