Slow login windows 7 to domain account
Hi
I have recently installed windows 7 on some computer in the organisation to test it out. I have three test computers connected to the production network now. All of them with clean installations of windows 7.
My problem is that all of the three computers uses 6 - 7 minutes to logon to the user account. Every computer with a different useraccount. The same accounts are fast on WinXP. The AD server is a windows 2003 server. There are some folder redirection on my documents etc. There is also a login script for mapping some drives and printers.
I've attached the gpsvc log from one of the computers.
Does anyone see what causes this and knows how to solve it?
Here is some "cut &Â paste" from the log where the time has some big jumps.

Slow logon performance may be related to either of the following scenarios:
1. Roaming Profile size, you can right click the user profile folder to check the size of this roaming profile. Try to reduce and delete unnecessary data. Â
2. Third party program blocks the roaming profile to be loaded. You can perform a clean boot to see if the logon gets faster.
3. Group Policy settings blocks the user logon. I found a customer resolved his similar issue by enabling the entry" Hide an disable all items on the desktop" under User Configuration/Administrati
4. Corrupted roaming profile, if it is the case, try to create a new account and manually copy data to the new one.

There are a few connectivity errors within the posted log file. Are the computers connected via wireless? If so, the issue could be caused by the network connection not being established until after logon.
Short of that, do you have static IP Addresses on the computers, and are they definately pointing to the correct DNS Addresses?

Correct the Network location awareness issue,verify the service is running from services.msc

It looks to be the gpo causing slow logon from the logs.
Run gpupdate /force & see the event viewer.Are you getting successful apply of  GPO?
Go to local area connection,click properties,click connect,advanced> speed &Â duplex> select 100MBPS full duplex,reboot the dc.
Also check very imp GPO's are applying properly yo that system or not,if not disjoin the system from the domain &Â rejoin it.
Also,give try to updating nic drivers.

As said,primary &Â alternate dns has to be set correctly.
Primary should be pointing to dc with AD-Integrated dns &Â alternate to secondary dc with dns.
Nslookup should able to resolve host to ip &Â vice versa of the system as well as dc &Â adc too.

DNS looks fine. I will try to disable the GPOs and see if one of them is causing the problem.

Hello jhlds,
I'm encountering slow login issues on a domain where Trend Micro Worry Free Business Security is in use on the client PCs - they're very slow when logging in and they're NOT connected to the domain.
Can you please let me know what your fix was?
Thanks!

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
