Guest Dani Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 Hello We have the following situation: - Windows 2003 Domain - Windows XP SP2 When a Laptop is powered on in the firm, then the windows xp client shows for nearly for 2 min "Applying computer settings". After that the Login windows comes. When the same Laptop is powerd on offline, the it takes some secound, where the "Applying computer settings" shows. How can I correct the long time, showing "Applying computer settings" when the Laptop is connected to the doamin? Thanking you in advance and awaiting your reply, Kind Regards Dani

When this occurs, in almost all cases it is because the DNS settings are wrong. The server should look to itself for DNS with forward/reverse lookup zones set for Internet access. Workstations should only look to the server.

Guest Jian-Ping Zhu [MSFT] Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 RE: Long StartUptime at the Domain Hello, Thank you for your post as well as to Malke for the information sharing. Analysis and Suggestion: ======================= There are many reasons which might cause a slow logon to domain. I agree with Malke that most of these issues are caused by DNS settings. To narrow down the issue, please follow the below steps: 1. Check Event Viewer to see whether the event logs contain any error information. On both the client and the server, check the System log for failures during the logon process. Also, check the Directory Service logs on the server and the DNS logs on the DNS server. To view Event Viewer in Windows XP, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Event Viewer. 2. Check the IP configuration by running the ipconfig /all command at a command prompt. Verify that the configuration is correct for your network. 3. Use the Ping utility to verify network connectivity and name resolution. Ping DNS Server via both the IP address and the server name. 4. Use the nltest /dsgetdc:domainname command to verify that a domain controller can be located for a specific domain. The NLTest tool is installed with the Windows XP support tools. For information about how to install these tools, refer to the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 306794 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306794/EN-US/) How to Install the Support Tools from the Windows XP CD-ROM 5. Use the NSLookup tool to verify that DNS entries are correctly registered in DNS. Verify that the server host records and GUID SRV records can be resolved. For example, to verify record registration, use the following commands: nslookup server_name.child_of_root_domain.root_domain.com nslookup guid._msdcs.root_domain.com 6. If either of these commands does not succeed, use one of the following methods to reregister records with DNS: To force host record registration, type ipconfig /registerdns. To force domain controller service registration, stop and then restart the Netlogon service. 7. Test with disabling the WebClient service to see if this resolves the logon delay. 8. Please check whether you have installed any Anti-Virus software on client PC. If so, temporarily uninstall the AV software and have another try. 9. Please check whether you have installed Novell client. If so, please uninstall it and have another try. 10. Please test whether the same issues occur on other PCs which are located in the same site as your current one.

Guest Jian-Ping Zhu [MSFT] Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Re: Long StartUptime at the Domain Hello, Thank you for your time and reply. Based on my research, this issue might also be caused by the startup scripts. Please collect the following information to help investigate whether there are any startup scripts loaded when computer is started. 1. On the problematic computer, click Start, click Run, type Cmd and press Enter. 2. Type the following command "gpresult /z > D:\gpresult.txt" 3. Please Send the gpresult.txt file to me. 4. On the problematic computer, please run "Regedit" to launch Registry Editor to add or to modify the following registry entry: Subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon Entry: UserEnvDebugLevel Type: REG_DWORD Value data: 10002 (Hexadecimal) 5. After enabling the registry key, please restart the problematic computer and then logon it with Administrator. You may collect the "C:\WINDOWS\Debug\UserMode\userenv.log" and then send to me at v-jpzhu@microsoft.com WARNING: As serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly, please refer to the following KB article to back up the registry before you modify it: How to back up and restore the registry in Windows http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756/en-us Thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing from you. :) Sincerely, Neo Zhu, Microsoft Online Support Microsoft Global Technical Support Center Get Secure! - http://www.microsoft.com/security ===================================================== When responding to posts, please "Reply to Group" via your newsreader so that others may learn and benefit from your issue. ===================================================== This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. -------------------- | From: "Dani" <coolio@news.postalias> | References: <eVxZsyquIHA.1328@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl> <l7DZpyxuIHA.4088@TK2MSFTNGHUB02.phx.gbl> | Subject: Re: Long StartUptime at the Domain | Date: Tue, 3 Jun 2008 00:06:13 +0200 | Lines: 186 | X-Priority: 3 | X-MSMail-Priority: Normal | X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.5512 | X-RFC2646: Format=Flowed; Original | X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.5512 | Message-ID: <egO6U0PxIHA.4560@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl> | Newsgroups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general | NNTP-Posting-Host: 62-167-13-223.static.adslpremium.ch 62.167.13.223 | Path: TK2MSFTNGHUB02.phx.gbl!TK2MSFTNGP01.phx.gbl!TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl | Xref: TK2MSFTNGHUB02.phx.gbl microsoft.public.windowsxp.general:206916 | X-Tomcat-NG: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general | | Hello Jian-Ping | | 1.

Guest robinmccluney@gmail.com Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Re: Long StartUptime at the Domain Hello, try chnaging your group policy from syncronos to asycronos so that comuter policy aplies before the users logon Its a simple Windows 2000 trick which makes best excuses towards a bad network.
