I can tell you why...... ;-) > Primary DNS Suffix . . . . . . . : > Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcast > C:\>nslookup > *** Can't find server name for address 192.168.1.254: Non-existent domain > *** Default servers are not available > Default Server: UnKnown > Address: 192.168.1.254 The Win2K box is trying to find the domain-name from your DNS server since you have NOT entered one manually (like most of us do). Win2K is attempting to figure out what your domain-name by DNS records on the internet and broadcast, forcing you to wait until it fails before resolving any DNS information requested by the user (the lag). If you used DHCP to receive an ip address (per default setup), this information would be received via the DHCP lease. You will have this problem EVERY reboot until you either use DHCP on the Win2k client or enter a domain-name (anything basically) in the IP setup on the Win2k machine.
