A. When you logon and, for instance, your local profile is newer than the one stored on the profile server you have an option of which to use and a timer of 30 seconds is given. This 30 seconds can be modified as follows:
Start the registry editor (regedit.exe)
Move to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon
From the Edit menu select New - DWORD value and enter a name of 'Show' and press Enter
Double click the new value and set to between 0 and 600. Make sure you set the type to decimal. Click OK
Close the registry editor
This will take effect at next login
