I'm getting the same problem and if he's like me, my xp clients are picking up the DNS info from the DHCP server.
I have the same configuration on W2K workstations which work fine. Why does this problem only occur on XP workstations?
Here's a slightly more detailed account from anotehr post :
Windows 2000 servers running SP4 and using AD
Clients are a mix of 2000 - sp4 and XPpro sp1a
I've been running the servers afor about 2 years now and they have been absolutely fine, so has the whole network.
Then I wen't on a MCP course and decided to put a bit of what i've learned into action.
DFS, replication, group policy, permissions tweaking, auditing, quotas and such.
Now i have windows 2000 clients which run fine but windows XP pro clients which take 5 minutes when "Applying computer settings..." this only happens for the first login of the day. Subsequent logins that day go at normal speed.
Its absolutely infuriating. I've wasted over a week trying to sort this problem out. I've undone all the configuration work i've done trying to backtrack. I've applied all the patches and SPs i can find but nothing seems to sort it out.
I've done plenty of searches on the web for solutions and noticed that I'm not the only one having these troubles.
