My first thing to check for a slow logon on a Windows network is DNS. Verify that the slow clients have DNS properly configured. Then be sure that the server has DNS properly configured and all necessary records exist.<br>

Have a problem with a small network (six machines, one server & router) -<br>
some of the Windoze machines are taking *minutes* tologin on the server,<br>
and I suspect that some of the network gear/cabling may be having<br>
problems.<br>
<br>
Other than pawing through packet dumps or ramdonly running cables to<br>
byass what's in the walls (already swapped the switch), is there any way<br>
to collect 'statistics'? Collisions? Packet re-sends? Conversation<br>
failures?<br>
<br>
TIA,<br>
