Hi, I recently setup Windows 2003 serverw ith Active Directory, but I'm having an issue on Winxp system login very slow. It took about 2 minutes. Is this normal? If I switch back to workgroup, it login in second. Here what I have done on the server side: Server IP: 192.168.1.4 Sub mask: 255.255.255.0 gateway: 192.168.1.1 DNS: 192.168.1.4 On my netgear router I also add a reservation for 192.168.1.4. I also try uninstall my dns server and reinstall again but still got the same issue. Winxp machine is using DHCP. Thank, Bong

Run dcdiag and netdiag. This is usually caused by screwed up DNS. "Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion! Hats off & applause to rogues & evolution! The ripple effect is too good not to mention. If you’re not affected, you’re not paying attention!"

Where can I run this at? What option do I go to? Thank!

Install the Windows 2003 support tools. Make sure you use the appropriate ones for your service pack level. "Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion! Hats off & applause to rogues & evolution! The ripple effect is too good not to mention. If you’re not affected, you’re not paying attention!"

I just installed windows 2003 resouce manager but don't seem to find the option to run this tool dcdiag and netdiag.

Read what I said more carefully. I did not say "Resource Manager". I said Support Tools. "Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion! Hats off & applause to rogues & evolution! The ripple effect is too good not to mention. If you’re not affected, you’re not paying attention!"

is this option from add/remove program or from the windows 2003 CD?
