When I attempt to authenticate a workstation to the domain the workstation becomes extremely slow. &nbsp;The network is currently setup as a peer to peer network with a 2000 MS SBE server. &nbsp;The 2000 MS SBE has the DC, file sharing, and exchange server running. &nbsp;I am trying to change it to a domain environment. &nbsp;As a P to P it works fine. &nbsp;As soon as I authenticate a workstation to the domain the workstation becomes extremely slow with everything I try to do on the workstation. &nbsp;Not just network stuff, but everything, like opening my computer, a local program or a network program. &nbsp;I have the same results with a win98, win2000 &amp;&nbsp;XP pro workstation. &nbsp;The rest of the P to P workstations continue to run OK. &nbsp;Any ideas? &nbsp;Lew

Slow workstation then authenticating to domain

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
