I thought that I would post an update to the issue. The issue
is it will hang on "Configuring Office Components" mainly Excel not
loading fonts. Although it is more predominant on wireless systems
(taking up to 15 min.)than on wired (taking up to 2 min). Evidently
configuring office components is dumping a fair amount of information
to the network home directory (during this phase it seems to write
137 files totaling 51.9MB with seemingly random names i.e.
"REGEDOANHNFPLzqkkkkkk--------"). I don't see this happen when it is
used with a local account. I have tried all the preferences that I
can think of and the issue is still reoccurring. Of note this issue
will only occur if I login to a different system each time. If I
login to the same system performance is amazing. I just can't afford
to have the 51.9MB being written each time a user logs into a
different computer especially if they are on a wireless connection.
Thanks again!

Hello everyone,
So I thought I would throw this one out there. I am running a
network home directory environment. With a mixture of wired and
wireless clients. Which is working fine. That is all other
applications except for MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint. The problem
is that when you launch a MS app for the first login on a computer
it takes around 10 minutes to startup. If I logout and log back
in, no problem Office launches in under 5 seconds. Nice! But if I
move to another computer the whole process needs to be repeated
taking another 10 minutes. I have already moved "dofonts" from the
Microsoft Office/Office folder as well as moved the Fonts to /
Library/Fonts. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Barrett Hartman
