Re: Slow connection with new server

indeed it may, is it large files ? Is the Vista clock in sync with the domain (<5mn) ?


When you copy large files to or from earlier operating systems, the copy operation may be slower than expected on some Windows Vista-based computers

The workstation Iam working from is the only workstation with Vista. All
other workstations can access the new server. Is there something new in
security that would be creating this probelm?

This is significant.

I was able to access the share from the original server with no problem.
The connection was as fast as expected.

This is not a cabling issue or a NIC issue. This must be related to
security. I don't think this is a DNS issue. All three computers are on the
same subnet.

My desktop has no problem assessing any other computer on the network. Only
the new server. And I do not think that problem showed up until I added SP2.

I have given myself full rights to the new share. Even when I try to assess
my list of computers on the network, there is a long delay - probably when it
tries to access the new server.
