Re: Roaming Profiles and redirected folders

If it's really quick, it's not due to bad configuration/setup.

Now you have to digg on the profile size, fragmented filer...

How big are your profiles ?
any offline sync folder?

Ok I created a new user and set him up the same way. He does log on much quicker then everyone else. More assumption is because this user really has nothing in his profile yet, but as it grows that is when the logon process takes longer. Am I correct in this assumption? Any recommendations for cleaning my profiles? Or is my problem elsewhere?

hello,

can you trying by creating a fresh user ? If it's still so slow with an empty profile, that's something else (dns...)
any eventlog error entry ?

We have been using roaming profiles and redirected folders for awhile and we are noticing some serious slowness when a person goes to log into their machines. After you type in your password the message saying, "Loading your personal settings" is on the screen for a good 4-5 minutes before it changes to "Applying your personal settings". What can I do to troubleshoot this? Does it have anything to do with my roaming profiles or redirected folder setup? I created 3 shares on my server. One share is \\server_name\Profiles\ for my roaming profiles. I have the offline setting on this share set to, "Files or programs from the share will not be available offline". My second share is \\server_name\desktops for my desktops. I have the offline settings for this set to, "Only the files and programs that users specify will be available offline." My third share is \\server_name\MyDocs for my redirected My Documents. The offline settings for this share are also set to, "Only the files and programs that users specify will be available offline." I see that there is another offline option that states, "All files and programs that users open from the share will be automatically available offline" it also has a check box saying, "Optimized for performance". Should I be using that setting instead for all 3 of my shares?

I think I have read somewhere that this could be a DNS issue also, but I don't really think that is the case.

Thanks
-Scott
