I'm running Win Server 2000 activated Acitve Directory. My
problem is that the workstations take 6 minutes to logon.
Once the users enter the ID and PWD click enter it takes
at least 6 minutes to reach the desktop. It stays dangling
in setting up profile.
How can I speed the process up? There are no other
services running.
Thanks...any hepl would be appreciated.
