Re: User Based Slow Logon and Auth

I should have added this to the last reply.

Workstations are WinXP Pro SP2 with all updates installed.

Give us as much detail as you can i.e.
1. How many servers in your network?
2. How many nics in the SBS server
3. Do you have ISA installed?
3. What they connected to?
4. Run "ipconfig /all" from the SBS Server, any other server, and a
workstation and then post the results here

I have to add some more information to this.

Anything that requires authentication is taking a very long time to
complete. I am setting one of these users up on a new workstation and the
logon took just over 5 minutes and the proccess of setting up outlook to
open
the users mail so far is at 15 minutes counting right after clickin on the
"Check Name" button.

The ERP is tied to the domain user for logon and that times out
completely.

I have searched the newsgroups here and tried a number of things
discussed in
similar threads but I have not had any luck.

Here is my situation; I have an SBS 2003 R1 server running my domain. I
have
two users that when you log in as them it takes about 5 minutes for the
logon
process to finish. The problem seems to be related to the two user
accounts
directly because this behavior follows the user account regardless of the
workstation that the user logs into. There are no roaming profiles on
this
network, the same logon scripts and policies apply to all the other users
of
the domain and they are not having the problem. The workstations are set
to
get their IP information from the DHCP server running on the SBS server
and I
have verified that all the options on the DHCP server are correct. I have
made the user accounts in questions local administrators to the
workstations
to see if this fixes the issue and it does not. I have thought about
making
new accounts for the users and just moving on but there is a problem with
accountability that is inherited from this. Our ERP runs off an MS SQL
Database and that database tracks transactions by users based on the SID
of
the user account, so simply making a new account for the user and
assigning
it the olf mailbox from exchange won't do the trick for me.

Have I missed something? Is there anything I can do?

Thanks
