I don't think I have any policies applied.  I have not created any OU's yet.  How can

I'd agree that this is possible related to group policies.  Do you have
policies set up to apply to only certain uses in the OU?  The  more policies
that are being applied, the longer a login is going to take.

Everyone is in the same OU.  
Here's a clue, perhaps.   The "fast" users seem to be the ones that were
created AFTER we switched to AD.  Any user that was "upgraded" to AD is
slooow!

Are the "slow" users in a different OU to the others?  Sometimes a group
policy setting applied to one OU can be the cause.

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.
