Garrett Strange Problem - Have you tried this from several places on the network - tried on a totally new user account and profile (with an empty mailbox) - I would even try the client on the actual server and see if that is any faster. Check logs on client and server for anything. Otherwise I would be really interested to see what the issue ends up as. I have had a similar problem with a faulty card on one of our switches and it took me weeks to find. Good luck. Simon

They are only going to use it for internal use and will not have an Internet connection at least initially. Neither the server or workstations are over-worked, the network is fine, and shares open up immediately. The weird thing is like I said...if I blow away the profile and re-create it, the first connection is fast, but thereafter it is slow again.
