Hi all. I currently have SBS2003 R2 with SBS SP1 and Server 2003 SP1 installed. I have a combination of XP and Vista as client workstations. Prior to working with SBS, I was using plain old Server 2003. Following those practices, I joined my clients to the domain without going through /connectcomputer. After joining the machine to the domain, the CTRL + ALT + DELETE prompt takes time to appear. In Vista, the "Please wait..." message stays visible for a good 20 seconds, and in XP, "Preparing Network Connections" & "Applying Computer Settings" are visible. Once these go away, I am able to log in. I re-joined the machines to the domain using the proper SBS way (/connectcomputer) and still have the same problem. On a normal Server 2003 domain, this did not happen. Is anyone else experiencing this or is this normal with SBS?
Here is a copy of ipconfig /all if anyone wants to take a look at it:Windows IP Configuration
