Re: DHCP Lease delayed on startup

Hi, Jared -

My guess is the machine is faster than the network - I have the same
problem with my shiny new 3.2GHz laptop ;-)

What I'd do is set a domain machine policy that forces workstations to
wait for the network at logon - or if you want to, you can set the
policy as a local machine policy instead. I set the local policy on my
laptop and it works just fine.

To set a local policy, open the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc),
browse to Computer Configuration --> Admninistrative Templates -->
System --> Logon

and set the policy that says "Always wait for the network at computer
startup and logon". This should solve your problem.

Good luck!
