I don't know if 2000 is the same, but I have done the same type of thing in
NT4. There are several knowledge base articles on this for NT 4 also. What
happens is the network stack sends out a probe on all nics. Then waits for
all of them to return, instead of using the first return. I have never had
more than about a two minute wait, so I never tweaked this problem.

Subject: Very slow logon with Multiple Nics
Doing a small Windows 2000 installation with 4 servers. 2 of the servers
have 4 NICs installed. Haven't done any tweaking beyond dropping the OS
on the machines. The two machines with the multiple cards take almost an
hour for the logon process to complete. What could be causing this
problem?
Please email any response to [EMAIL PROTECTED] My access to the Internet
is somewhat limited in the field, but I can get my email.
Thanks,
