frustrating logon issue on windows 2003 server clients

I have this configuration

DHCP clients witch take their ip from a router.
primary DNS => my w2003 server
Some uses roaming profiles, some does not.
Clients use windows 2000 profesional and some uses windows XP, all services
packs are installed., all have updated norton antivirus

I create the profile and everything is ok, but 2 or 3 logons after, the user
cannot logon, the machine stalls forever in applying user configuration, and
there's nothing I can do to make the user to enter. The weird thing is that
the pc seems to do something, because the disk appears to be working.

All I can do is delete the profile and everything turns back to normal, for
a few hours.


Anyone with a similar problem?

Is your server setup on the router as the primary DNS server or is it static
on all the clients ?

is static on all my clients, the router has two more DNS but when I run
ipconfig /all the primary DNS is my w2k3 server and the other two (router)
are additional.

anyone???.

I don't believe that is a DNS problem. It can be something in the clients?
Until the last week they were login on to a NT4 server.
