WHY!!!!???
why does it takes so long to log into the domain?. . . , this has been bothering me since a few moths ago but i cant take it anymore, and it only happens when the workstation is a Win2k/Winxp computer, if it's a win98 (huak!) it doesnt take any much.

Are you using Active Directory? Native mode or Mixed mode? Any WINS servers? Is NetBIOS over TCP/IP enabled or disabled in your DHCP scope?
Might want to use a more informative topic in the future.
If AD:
Install DNS on the DC
Have the DNS entry in the IP settings point to itself
Have all of your clients use the DC, and ONLY the DC, for their name resolution
Configure forwarders on the DC to hand off DNS resolution to your ISP's DNS boxes for domains that it is not authoritative for
Also, read up on the AD documentation in the help file on proper configuration of AD and the networking environment.
