Slow booting can happen for a couple of reasons
Typically its DNS configuration
The server's NIC card must only have the SBS server's IP as its DNS =
address, no other
DHCP on the server needs to be configured to hand out DNS
And when running IPconfig on the workstation, the DNS address should be =
the IP address of the server
