very slow login times

[rmcdaniel at indata.us]

This is interesting.  I am using a HP Proliant server with Dual Quad
Core cpu's, 4 GB memory, and about 210GB of storage.  I am also seeing
very slow bootup and login times.  I am suspecting that it has something
to do with my network.  When I run the resource monitor on the server,
nothing looks like it is getting close to maxing out.  I am running the
32 bit version of the OS and my clients are HP T5530 with 128 MB of mem.
 Tomorrow I am going to look at my network and see if I have any
problems.

This has really become a problem. Waiting 3 to 4 minutes from login is 
too long.

Any one have any ideas what script is eating up the thin client's cpu?

I could really use some help with this.

Thanks,

Luis
