I've had Win XP Pro loaded onto my office machine for a couple of months
now along with Novell's client.  My drive (local and network) access seems
to be much slower than it was when this machine was a Win 2K Pro (also
using Novell's client).

I wasn't sure where the sluggishness was until I logged onto my machine w/o
attaching to the Novell network.  Going into "My Computer" showed the local
drives immediately.  The delay is most noticeable when attempting to access
a drive for the first time after a reboot.  However there is still a
noticeable delay in accessing documents from the network drive.

Is this happening to anyone else?
