Network Browsing Delay

I have a client who experiences a delay 1-2sec when opening certain network
shares when browsing. This does not happen when browsing from the server the
share is on (using Network Browsing).

It currently has DNS and WINS running. It was running pure DNS and the issue
was there. WINS has been added since.

Windows 2000 Server



Equip:

IBM 4500R

1 Gig RAM

72 GB RAID 5 array (3*36)

100Mbps full duplex NIC



TIA
 
If this is a Windows XP machine, try disabling the Web client Service. Otherwise, take a Network Monitor trace and look at what is happening on the network at
the time you access the share.

Thank you,

if this is winxp, it's because microsoft has put a task schedule thing into
the windows xp registry, so if you view a network share, it checks the
comptuer your viewing the share of, and checks that computer for scheduled
tasks it's running. To remove it from winxp registry, do the following...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current
Version/Explorer/RemoteComputer/NameSpace
in the Registry. Below that, there should be a key called
{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}. Just delete this, and after a
restart, Windows will no longer check for scheduled tasks - major
performance improvement!

Do you have any docs/links that explains this and so I can add it to my
favorites and to help others with?

Thank you.
