I had seen a similar issue, this was resolved after placing a DC in the local site and also configuring it as a local print server.
Major hits were with the print server, each time user prints it goes to the spooler in HQ and then comes back to print in local office, later the notification is expected by the client from the print server on completion of the print. Other traffic might also be going through same tunnel...like other business applications, E2K and so on... have the n/w team monitor the link or use netmon to get the same yourself...that might give you more insight...

You seem to have symptoms of timeouts and/or DNS misconfiguration. Any errors in the DNS server logs ? Have you ran DNSdiag yet by any chance ? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carerros, Charles Sent: Monday, January 31, 2005 5:53 PM To: 'ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] VPN Connections with 2003 ADs This site goes back to our main location that houses this sites DNS, DC, GC and other server related sites. The VPN concentrator at this location grants DHCP servers to the location and uses a routing table for security. All of the ISA and other firewall issues are dealt with at the main location as the routing table only allows communication through here. We are using AD integrated DNS (which is housed on our DCs) and all DCs are GCs. The odd thing is that if you are at that location and are using a workstation on the NT domain then all web services as well as workstation boot up and logon times are normally. Only AD related workstations are affected. We are using Cisco VPN concentrators on both ends. Does this cover the information that you were looking for. If you need something else, let me know.

I have just completed the migration of our of my sites that is using a VPN connection to our central hub. Before the migration they were not experiencing any issues, however after the migration they are not seeing large lag times in starting up their machines and logging in. Also, when they browse the internet and they try to access pages that require authentication they get stuck (the page never loads completely and they do not receive an error message and this includes sites such as mail.yahoo and gmail.com). Has anyone seen an issue like this where the migration of the network kills the VPN?
