Windows XP Slow Log-in

I have a problem with Windows XP Pro logging in slowing to my Windows 2003 Server. Often I get the message "cannot locate roaming profile". It takes 2-4 minutes to log-in and often doesn't not find the roaming profile, therefore losing printer configs., etc. I have 32 computers in my lab. Any ideas?

I read a thread that mentioned that I should make sure the DNS of the client was the ip address of the server. Is that correct?
All of my profiles are there on the server.
The log-in takes such a long time. Any other ideas?
