XP Login

[Guest]

I remember reading somewhere a while back that XP had an issue where a user could login before the underlying network subsystem was operational. The problem I am having is our login script is not consistently running on some computers. Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

I hadn't heard that one before but I have seen issues where login scripts
sometimes don't run. That's usually a switch issue. Here are some articles
that talk about some of these same types of issues:

202840 - A Client Connected to an Ethernet Switch May Receive Several
Logon-Related Error Messages During Startup
