Slow logon for Windows at remote office
I have an remote office with about 20 users. I am in Atlanta and they are in Jacksonville. I have 50MB connections at both sites with MPLS running between. I have 2 domain controllers at both sites. I have verified that the remote site PC's are authenticating to the local DC. All of the computers are running Windows 7 Pro 64bit.
It takes anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes for these machines to logon and log off everyday. I have roaming profiles. All of the desktop/my documents/favorites point to a network profile.
If I login as network admin outside of the GPO the login is very fast. So my thought here is that it has to be something with the GPO over the WAN. Users is Atlanta office do not have this issue at all.
I have found event id 1112 warning in the event log
The Group Policy Client Side Extension Folder Redirection was unable to apply one or
more settings because the changes must be processed before system startup or user logon. The system will wait for Group Policy processing to finish completely before the
next startup or logon for this user, and this may result in slow startup and boot performance.
Is there anything I can do to fix this? Any other ideas how to make this process go faster?
I am attaching application, security and system logs from a test machine.
