Please Help!!! Weird Problem

[joe ball]

I have upgraded 2 computers to Windows XP Professional. I
got the computers joined to the Domain just fine. The
problem is when I log in as a Domain User it takes
FOREVER!!! It takes anywhere from 1-3 minutes to
Authenticate and go on in to the network. This should
just take a couple of seconds.

When it delays at the startup screen when logging in it
has this on the screen, "Applying your personal settings"

This part is the longest delay. Why is it delaying so
long before it logs into the domain???

Someone please help!!! I need to get these loaded today!!!

Thanks

Joe

Hi,

This is moslty caused by wrong settings for DNS on your client(s). Please
verify that your DNS server (same computer as Domain Controller?) is the
primary, and then add aditionally DNS-servers if needed.

Hope this helps!
