MessageJoe,

If you look under Machine\Adm Templates\System\Group Policy you will see there 
is  a setting for slow Link detection. This does a ping to the Domain 
controller to determine the line speed.

There are also individual policies for Registry Policy processing, IE 
maintenance etc. You can then set whether these will apply over a slow link.

Be aware though that if the user is always running remotely, they will never 
get the policies applied.

There is also a setting for slow link detection under User\ADM 
templates\System\Group Policy.

  Thanks Bart for you feedback. A little more information. We do not use 
roaming profiles. Is there a way I can get the login script to stop running so 
the users are not trying to map drives from remote locations?

    Hi, 

    Logging on to a domain controller in another site shouldn't make a 
difference in GPO processing times as they are in that local site also 
(DC/sysvol). 
    The gpo processing will check the version and will not apply unless there 
is a difference. 

    What i'm suspecting is that you draw the roaming profile from their "home 
office" share over the wan. 
    Also folder redirection to home folders on their "native" file server will 
slow it down cosiderably. 

    The only way to solve this is to deploy DFS based file shares for home 
folders and profiles. 

    Also make sure you son't delete local cached copies of their profile as 
this will also force GPO settings to reapply completely. 
    Vriendelijke groeten, 
    Cordialement,

    Good Morning, 

    We have many people who travel to other offices as part of their jobs and 
the logon experience when they get there is painfully slow. Is there a way to 
set a policy so if a user authenticates to a domain controller away from their 
"home office" that they will not receive any policies such as a logon script or 
folder redirection.  Any suggestions would be appreciated. 



    Thanks, 

    Joe
