Q279282 Slow File Write from Windows 2000 to Windows NT 4.0 Server
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q279/2/82.asp
XP machines=Disable the "Web client" to see if it resolves the issue.
Check for large security templates that apply on startup
(%systemroot%\security\policies\templates is where we cache policies
locally)
You can enable userenv logging per:
Q221833 Enabling User Environment Debug Logging in Retail Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q221/8/33.asp
You might not see any specific errors but you can look at the Timestamp
next to
"Recurse Directory" which is normally where we copy the profile: A sample
line from
a userenv log is listed below:
Start Line:
USERENV(17f0.24f8) 10:32:53:015 RecurseDirectory: Adding
\\<ServerName>\<ShareName>\jdtest\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\WHAPI\ to
the list of
directories
End Line:
USERENV(17f0.24f8) 10:33:01:593 RecurseDirectory: Adding
\\<ServerName>\<ShareName>\jdtest\windows\ to the list of directories
We can also compare the timestamp that from the first line of the user
logon:
USERENV(17f0.24f8) 10:32:45:843 LoadUserProfile: Entering, hToken =
<0x1f4>,
lpProfileInfo = 0x6f64c
USERENV(17f0.24f8) 10:32:45:843 LoadUserProfile: Entering, hToken =
<0x1f4>,
lpProfileInfo = 0x6f64c
USERENV(17f0.24f8) 10:32:45:843 LoadUserProfile: lpProfileInfo->dwFlags =
<0x0>
USERENV(17f0.24f8) 10:32:45:843 LoadUserProfile: lpProfileInfo->lpUserName
=
<jdtest>
and the last line.
A simple test would be to copy the profile to another server, location or
even
locally to the machine and try logging on. You can change the profile path
in the
user's profile on Windows NT or Windows 2000 to eliminate the issue and
determine
if the server or resouce is overloaded.
UserEnv is one of the best ways to see why you would be failing to load
your profile. Another one would be to get a network capture. Keep in mind
that if you do have roaming profiles enabled, and logging on accross the
WAN, you may want to make sure you do not have a lot of Temp Internet Files
configured.
Remember to go back and turn off Userenv logging when you are done.
