Recently installed new server and upgraded system from NT4 to W2k3. Every thing is working fine except the login times are slow 2+ minutes. We changed from staic IP add's to a roaming profile for all workstations (auto I.P & DNS)
Still slow apart from one machine which logs in as admin in 20 secs login, but with another user back to 2 mins. The other workstations are slow whether admin or other user. It is probably some simple part of the config that has been missed. Any help would be appreciated
 
I've had similar problems in the past and it's usually down to the lack/wrong DNS Server being listed in the TCP/IP properties.
 
Thank you Matt will look at this part of the system again, also if this problem sounds familiar to others on this forum please add your solution.
