[THIN] Re: Citrix slow logins and screen freezes

Umm, I had REALLY slow logins.. talking like 10 minutes or so.  I already 
posted this to the list & got a great response that now makes that box the 
fastest one logging in!
 
The fix was given by Rick Mack (Thanks again, Rick).  If you want more info do 
a search for the title "SP4 and slow logins"
 
Had this problem on one customer site and traced it to cmstart taking just 
about forever. 
I removed cmstart.exe from appsetup under hlkm\software\microsoft\windows 
nt\currentverion\winlogon. 
And added a line: 
Start /c cmstart.exe 
Towards the end of usrlogon.cmd. 
Cmstart still takes ages to complete, but it runs in the background and doesn't 
stop explorer from initialising reasonably quickly.

Subject: [THIN] Citrix slow logins and screen freezes
 
Has anyone experienced slow logins and screen freezes on their Citrix boxes 
after installing SP4 for Win2k?  If so, have they found a solution?  
 
I have been working with Microsoft on this problem, but after two weeks, we are 
still scratching our heads in confusion.
