Remote desktop connection taking longer than 20 seconds to connect

Turns out it was a DNS issue; trying 3 IPv6 addresses that wouldn't connect before trying a working IPv4 address.
Sorry all!

When connecting to one of my servers with remote desktop it takes an unusually long time to present me a log in box. After connecting server is very responsive so it doesn't seem like it is running low on resources.
- It only happens on this one server.
- Server is running Windows Server 2008r2
- The server is one of multiple hosted on a hyper-v box.
- Hyper-V manager shows that disk usage and memory usage is low.
What might be causing this delay?

Stephane about 11 yearsCould you be more specific about what happens while you wait and how exactly your connecting to the server ? -
t123 about 11 years@Stephane i connect using
mstscas usual. Then i get the connecting to window 'initializing remote connecting' for a long time. Then it asks for username and password like usual -
Stephane about 11 yearsDo you get the username and password promt in a MSTC dialog or do you go to the server remote console and are prompted there ? I'm asking so I can find out if you have an issue with network-level authentication
