I am using Vista x64 Ultimate RTM on a machine on a SBS2003SP1 network. The
Vista machine takes a long time from boot to showing Crtl-Alt-Del for login.
I checked the event logs and there are events 6005/6006 saying that the
gpclient took a long time to process the requests and taking over 80sec to
respond.

I searched the internet and kb articles but can't find anything. Can
anybody help please?
 
Hi ,

Based on my experience, Event 6005 is logged at boot time noting that the
Event Log service was started. It gives the message "The Event log service
was started".
Event 6006 is logged as a clean shutdown. It gives the message "The Event
log service was stopped".

Woud you please paste the deatiled event here for research?

thanks.

Hi,

I'am expirencing a similar problem. The first time a new user logs on it
takes up to 5 minutes. The eventlog first logs a 6005 warning (from
Winlogon), saying "The winlogon notification subscriber <GPClient> is taking
long time to handle the notification event (Logon)". After a while a 6006
warning (from Winlogon) saying "The winlogon notification service <GPClient>
took xx second(s) to handle the notification event (Logon).
This "only" happens the first time the user logs on.

It seems like it has something to do with redirecting folders via policies.
If I try to disable the Folder Redirection for a user, then the logon time
is much better and there are no warnings in the eventlog.

Any suggestions is appreciated. ?

My errors exactly. However, I don't have redirected folders..... (Yes I am
the administrator of my SBS2003 at home.....)
 
Any errors if using nslookup?

I too get this error in our domain..

The user cant reach the sysvol directory though .. which is a bad
thing, but can reach all other network drives.

It only happens on one x86 Vista machine, connected to the 2003 domain,
no redirected drives etc.

Any thoughts?
