Slow network drive access

I have a Windows 2000 machine, that has the Novell Client.

When I open up My Computer, it takes like 2-3 mins before
the drives show up. If I am not logged into Novell, it
doesn't happen.

The worst part is, when the user does a Save As in Word,
it takes 2-3 mins before he can even choose a place to
save it.

Any ideas?

We have a lot of Win2000 machines, but this one takes way
to long to recognize the network drives.

Thanks in advance for any help.

What exact AV version do you use? You dont have the client configured to
scan network drives do you?

Do you have SLP/DNS setup correctly?

What exact nwclient version do you have?

What support pack do you have on the NetWare sever?

Have you run http://www.ithowto.com/novell/clientspeed.htm

What is the service pack on your w2k box & what is the patch level on your
office ver?

How do you do your printers? old queue or new ndps?
