My boss complains that he has to wait too much before he gets to his profile after he logs in.
I cheked the DNS ip address of my w2k server on his w2k pro computer and is fine. What else I should do to make this process faster? (...beside of changing company)
Thank you.

Your boss probably keeps a lot of things in his "my documents" folder. You could use folder redirection (assuming active directoy is installed) to redirect the my docs folder to another server. This will keep the folder from syncing every time he logs into or off of another computer. Outside of that try to identify what files are being copied and it's possible that some of the file types could be excluded to speed it up. Profile syncing should really only occur fully once, after that only changes should replicate. If this isn't happening then his profile isn't being stored on the client.
