[Samba] windows 7 on samba 3.4.2 slow

Hello,

I followed the instructions here:

http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7

Everything seems fine, however if I log into a domain account, Windows
is now painfully slow. This is kind of curious, as task manager reports
no CPU load and no network load.

If I log out and back in again with a local/non-domain account, then
everything runs at full speed again.

Furthermore, if I disconnect the network some non-network operations
don't seem to work any more.

I had a theory that maybe the domain login script is slowing things down
however there doesn't seem to be any evidence to justify this.

Any ideas?

Brian May
