Slow performance browsing network shares

[Nick Temple]

When I browse a share I get a 30 to 40 second delay in
getting a folder listing and when I open a file. After
opening the first file the performance is very good. When
I am not using the network share for 30 minutes or so and
I go back I get the 30- 40 second delay. This is slowing
down all the computers that have mapped drives, they get a
40-second delay when they start explorer.

THe server is windows 2000 service pack 4. It has dual
xeon 2.4 processors 1 GB of memory and 4 IDE Drives in a
RAID 0+1 configuration so there is no excuse for the
system to be slow.
The clients are all windows XP P4 2.0GHz or so.
THe network is 10/100 and all switched.

THe DNS is working ok. I have even tried having everyone
map to an ip addresss \\X.X.X.102 and there is no change.

Make sure the ipconfig/all from the clients shows that everything is
pointing to the server-IP.
It might help to put the XP-nics on anything but autosense.
Furthermore, check out the following articles: 329170, 810907, 812937,
811492, 321169 and 296264.

I have had another problem on a couple of xp clients here
that could be related.
I only map one drive however the client keeps remapping to
the same share until all the drive letters are used up.
I put "net use * /delete /yes " before net use e:
\\x.x.x.x\share in the logon script but the problems still
reoccurs.

I have checked out all of the articles you gave me none of
them directly apply, I am going to disable the whole sign
and seal circus and opportunistic file locking. Then I will
let you know what happens. It takes a good hour or two to
find out if any progress has been made do to the nature of
the problem.
