I was wondering if anyone knew how to turn off this new printer mapping
feature of Citrix. I am currently encountering a problem with slow logons.
It appears to be due to printer mappings. 

I recently upgraded the service packs on my Citrix xp servers to the latest
service packs. 

Windows 2000 SP3
Citrix XP SP2

After I did this, my logons have become much slower. If I disable printer
mapping, the logons go back to normal. I have been trying to find a fix, but
had no luck. 

It appears that the logon happens quickly, but then it takes forever to
autocreate the clients' printers. 

Has anyone else had this issue? I am hoping it has something to do with this
NEW "Feature" that Alex mentions.

As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

G.

Is this the problem at login? If so, it might be due to a new Citrix feature

of delayed printer mapping that can be turned off.
