Long wait for log on

Recently setup a test bed Server 2003 Small Business Edition on a box and XP
Professional clients. When logging onto the network through XP it takes 5-10
minutes. This seems like an eternity to sit and wait for the "Loading Your
Personal Settings" window to disappear. Is there a simple solution to this
problem I'm just overlooking?

Thanks, Darrell

Have you tried static ip?:
start/run, type: hh %windir%\Help\tcpip.chm::/sag_tcpip_pro_manualconfig.htm
