Dear friends,

I have the following situation;

1 Novell Netware 5.1 SBS server (10.0.0.1)
1 Windows Server 2003 enterprise (DC/domain.com/10.0.0.10)
1 Windows XP Professional workstation (DHCP/10.0.0.50)
    Novell Client 4.83SP2 installed on it.

Now to the problem. Normally, when I boot up the XP workstation, member of a
workgroup, the Novell Client shows up immediately and I can login to the
Novell server! This is how it should be. Since the workstation is member of
W2K3 domain the Novell client shows up after 20 seconds having just a blue
screen. Then I can login as ususal. Where does that delay come from?

Anyone has a solution or hints for this issue?

Thanks in adcance,

Herman Franssen
