TS 2003 Hangs on Login

I have a 2003 TS box. When I try to connect to it from
anywhere on the WAN/LAN, it takes it approximately 20
seconds to make the connection. I have even tried
plugging into the same switch as the box, and I have the
same problem. I have two other 2003 TS boxes that are
identical without this issue. HELP!

Anything in the EventLog on the TS?
Are you using roaming profiles?

There is absolutely nothing in the event log. This
machine is a workgroup member. No Domain. No roaming
profiles. All of the accounts are local.

Mmm, difficult. When exactly is the delay occurring? Before you
get a login dialog box at all, or after you have logged on and
before you get to the desktop?

If it is the first case, I would monitor the processes on the
server in Task Manager during this time, and use a network sniffer
to see what the server is doing.

If it is the second case, I would download FileMon and RegMon from
http://www.sysinternals.com/. Run them as administrator on the
console and start a TS session from a workstation.

FileMon and RegMon will show you all files and registry keys that
the server is touching during the login process.

Hopefully, one of the above procedures will show you what takes
the server so long.
