After going to ver 5, I had about 8 workstations (Win 95 & Win 98) which
took 2-3 min (after entering the user name and password) to get the main
Vantage menu. Turns out the problem was that since I changed servers
(both name and IP addresses), the workstations still had entries in the
registry pointing to the old server. When I removed those entries, ALL
workstations logged in very quickly! I don't understand why only 8 out
of 49 workstations were slow!?!
If Malcom changed the name or IP address of his server after the
rebuild, then that could be his problem. .
