They are roaming same as before. Everything is virtualised on XenServer, are there any tweaks for 2008 on XenServer?, we have the whole environment on XenServer (they use XenServer for their 2003 environment as well). Has anyone tested logon times between base 2k3 and base 2k8 in the same environment? It would be nice to know if there is noticeable difference or if maybe we have introduced something that is making it that much slower. Thanks, Ant. PS What should we class as "normal/good" logon times for 2k8? (With standard setup ie normal roaming profiles, nothing clogging up the startup, everything on same GB LAN etc...)

How did you treat them on Windows 2008, that can be one of the reasons ..

One company went from 7 secs to 14 secs (i know it's not a long login time but it has doubled!). We basically replicated their Windows 2003 setup (xenapp\DCs\File\Print\SQL) but have everything on Windows 2008. Most things work ok but the login times are killing me, I'm having to explain why this is without really knowing why there is such a difference. Anyone else notice this? Any tips? Thanks, Ant.
