Re: longer time in logging of roaming profiles



Hi George:

The *usual* cause of long startups is DNS. Can you verify that all systems
point to your SBS internal nic and that it has your ISP's DNS settings in
its forwarders tab of DNS?

1 - 2 mb in roaming profiles should not cause such a long start.

Were all the computers joined to the domain with connectcomputer?

Dear all,

I recently installed Win2003 SBS premium edition with 15 users and 10
client machines . roaming profiles is enabled for all user . after
enabling
some group policy restriction i noticed that when a user logs in take
nearly
3 to 5 minutes for users to log into windows XP.

Is this delay happening because of group policy restriction or because too
many users are logging into client machines with bigsize roaming profiles
. i
noticed that each client roaming profiles is around 2 mb .

is there a way to get the roaming profles cleared off from the local
machines once the user logs off

Thanks
George
