I'm not sure if this is the right group, but here goes.
When I try to login to the domain network. it takes 40 to 50 minutes to
login. There was a virus issues on the the server but after i had clean it,
the situation is still the same.

my exchange server/domain controller is a Win2K SP4.

Is there any other way to troubleshoot these matter?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
 
Is your DNS correctly configured? That is, clients look only at the AD DNS
server to resolve addresses, and the AD DNS server does all outside name
resolution?

FWIW, I had a similar problem with an older machine that was solved by
switching to a new NIC.

I'm not sure what it was that cured the problem, but I remember a similar
problem some years ago at a different client site that had to do with older
NIC cards having trouble negotiating the media access (10 vs 100 Mhz) with a
fancy new Ethernet switch they installed.
