RE: Domain Membership

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



It is normal that you wait a long time when you login in a domain. Cause your
computer would run some script and search the DHCP/DNS server and something
els. Depending on your network, it will take you 1 to 5 minutes to do it.
BTW If the change of the domain name is just add ".com" or something like
this, it is ok.
