Hi,

I am facing problem on a User Login.
When a user login on domain account or local account on a Windows 2000
professional machine it takes very long (10-15minutes) to loggon.
machine is a part of Single Domain Enviornment.

What can be the problem as System is Original IBM Desktop withPp-IV
2.8gz processor and 1GB RAM. Software loaded are limited only
Office2003,Adobe Acrobat, etc



Thanks

The most likely issue is DNS.  Is the client pointing to the AD DNS server
that your DC is using?

If DNS is not the issue (how is the client getting the DNS information -
from DHCP?  I presume Option 015?) then I might ask if you are using roaming
profiles?

Also, make sure that the clients are pointing only to the local DNS
Server(s), and not to any external DNS Servers (like your ISP).

Also, make sure in the DNS MMC that the domain name is spelled exactly
correctly.  Sometimes it can be off...

Yes Secondary DNS is ISP's DNS

We have Static IP scheme instaed of DHCP.

And in DNS MMC Domain Name is spelled correctly

Remove the IP Address of the ISP.  This is most probably the problem.  The
only place where the IP Address of your ISP's DNS Servers belong are in the
Forwarders tab....

Okay,

Let's summarize what is going on here:

You had it such that the secondary DNS information was the IP Address of
your ISP's DNS Server.  This was on both the Domain Controller and on all
client workstations.  This information is set statically.  You changed the
ISP information (is there another Domain Controller in your environment?).
Now, by changing it does that mean that you removed it or that you entered
in the IP Address of another DNS Server?  The name in your forward lookup
zone matches exactly the name of your internal domain.

You have rebooted all of the systems.  Another way would have been to do the
following at a command prompt on each system:

net stop netlogon
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /registerdns
net start netlogon

This has not resolved anything?

What happens if you use nslookup?  What does that tell you?

Are you able to get to the Internet once you do finally connect?

Do you have all of the subfolders in the FLZ?  Those would be _sites, _tcp,
_udp and _msdcs.  And all of the records are there?
What happens if you install the Support Tools and use dcdaig /v and netdiag
/v?  What is the output from each of those?

Oh,

And let's make sure that your domain is not a single-label domain (mydomain
instead of mydomain.com) and let's make sure that you do not have a
dual-homed situation (where the Domain Controller has two working network
cards).

Also let run diagnostics against the domain and see if there are any
lingering issues you may not be aware of.

Running diagnostics against your Active Directory domain.

If you don't have the tools installed, install them from your server install
disk.
d:\support\tools\setup.exe

Run dcdiag and netdiag in verbose mode.

If you download a gui script I wrote it should be simple to set and run.  It
also has the option to run individual tests without having to learn all the
switch options.  The details will be output in notepad text files that pop
up automagically.

The script is located in the download section on my website at
http://pbbergs.dynu.com/windows

Just select both dcdiag and netdiag make sure verbose is set.  (Leave the
default settings for dcdiag as set when selected)

When complete search for fail, error and warning messages.

Paul, I will start sending people to your web site....if you do not mind.
