Switch on the browser and server services or switch off ntsec. I need
at least _some_ services which keep me informed about the users
identity. However, it would again be of interest which part of
the startup waists the time. If your settings are correct (/etc/passwd
and the env vars USERNAME, USERDOMAIN and LOGONSERVER are most important)
that shouldn't happen (I thought). There's still a call to
NetWkstaUserGetInfo and calls to LookupAccountName under some
circumstances but not, if everything is setup correctly, theoretically.
