Perhaps this is the wrong place to write this so I apologise if so but the
small business server link would not work.We have windows 2003 small business
server. Anyhow we freqeuntly have problems where our users who all have xp2
logon to the network fine in the morning but their desktop settings and
programs do not load, the egg timer is merely there and the computer is
frozen. You have to manually reset the machine and then it is ok. Do you have
any idea why this happens or what monitor or alerts I can look at to observe
what is happening? It happens to a number of machines.
Please advise - thanks

You might want to consider using a newsreader like Outlook Express or Forte
Agent rather than the web interface to the newsgroups - it's a lot easier to
do nearly everything there, including searching, which is always a good idea
to do before you post, as well as mark messages to be watched, and filter
based on replies to your posts.

The Microsoft public news server is msnews.microsoft.com and you can
subscribe to as many groups as you like. The SBS 2003 group is at
microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs.

Event logs would help. Also - do you use roaming profiles? DNS set up
properly (all clients/server pointing only at the SBS server's LAN IP for
DNS, with forwarders set in the internal DNS server to your ISP's DNS
servers)?
