Hope this isn't too obvious.  We just upgraded from NT 4.0 to 2000 and Active 
Directory.  Some users now take a LONG time (30-40 seconds) to log in.  We do not use 
roaming profiles.  Different user logs into same computer and takes 5 seconds or less. 
 Back in the old NT 4.0 days I would have thought that the "slow" user had a large 
profile or something like that, but I can't figure out where to find that information 
in active directory.  Any help or reading references would be appreciated!

Details:
  Small network.  All computers fast ethernet.  Two DC's.  200 users. Win2000 server  
(not advanced).  All clients are win2000 pro.  One domain. 

Exactly where is it slow?    When you enter username, password and domain and click 
OK, the "log on to windows" window greys out for 2-4 seconds, then "loading your 
personal settings" comes up for 20-30 seconds.

With a "fast" user, the username/password/domain "log on to windows" screen disappears 
immediately, then the "loading your personal settings" stays up for 3-5 seconds.
