They won't let me do the default printer thing here. I guess it also depends on what printers/drivers are needed. I have had some beastly printers to set-up (thermal label etc, photocopiers) and the drivers tend to blue screen the servers, though CTX XP is much better for all that. What version of the client is he using (I think I missed that?!) I thought the joke was funny though maybe not as much as Ray and his home network stuff :P But then I am a geek :) Dan -----Original Message----- From: Greg Reese [mailto:GReese@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2003 4:32 PM To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] Re: Profiles!!! - Printers actually I have no problems with it and most of my clients connect that way. I have it set to only create the default printer so that helps some. I think there is an option somewhere in there about waiting for printers to be created in the app setup. That would slow it down too. Maybe a newer version of the ICA client would speed this up for him. -----Original Message----- From: windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Daniel Ensor Sent: Friday, October 31, 2003 11:13 AM To: 'windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [windows2000] Re: Profiles!!! - Printers actually Turn that off. Create a local printer on the server and create a new local port with the UNC to the printer. Then try and log on and obviously test the printers. Printer autocreation is dodgy at the best of times in my humble experience. Any comments list?

I finally tracked down this little terd. Here is the deal. When a users logs in that has PRINTERS installed locally, it takes forever for the application to load. This is not a profile issue or a domain issue as I have stated before. I know for a fact that this is a printers issue. I had a user running at 8 seconds, then I added a fake printer onto their local machine. It then took about a minute and a half to load the application. When they exit it takes another minute or so for the Citrix session to disconnect. This is printer related. Here I'll remove the printer again and see what happens to logons and logoffs... ...oh yeah! 8 seconds again. What is up with printers causing a long logon? (and logoff) Gunnar -----Original Message----- From: windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2003 7:40 AM To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] Re: Profiles i will attack modprof in a little bit right now let's deal with the long logons. I am now using the uphclean service and it has gotten rid of my userenv errors. Still the long logons remain. What I have done right now is I built a new machine didn't add it into the domain and it logs on in seconds. I then took the next step and added it to the domain, only takes a few seconds to logon. I'm about to take this same machine and do it under a differnet username, one that has a huge profile to see if the error still exists. I will post in a little bit.

Yup, have used it for a number of years without issue, and before that, the earlier versions. I note you'll always get the recommendations for commercial products to do this, and all I would say is - if that's worth it for you as an individual / company - then fine and dandy, but there is no technical reason why the MS tools won't do the job. > I'm looking at to clean > Citrix servers right now and would love to get modprof > utility to work on it. Believe me, there's no reason why modprof doesn't, or shouldn't work. I've been using it (and it's predecessors) for years to dynamically create outlook profiles for Citrix / terminal server users, that have mandatory profiles. > I also have already tried logging > someone on to this server only to find it takes 45 seconds to > log in (this is actually an improvement current logins take 3 > minutes).

Sounds a bit odd - you could always do the userenv debugging thing to get a more detailed picture of what's happening during login. I take it there's nothing odd in the event log?
