[plug] re: accessing Linux faster

Being new to Linux, I need to ask a fairly simple question.
A client has a Linux server with an application running on it.  Three 
users access this application via TCPIP running on a 2- NT workstations 
and 1 Windows95 workstation.  One of the users (NT-1) can access the 
Linux login prompt much faster than the other two (NT-2 and Win95-1).  
All setups are the same, they are using the Powerterm on their 
workstations with only TCPIP running.  Anyone have any idea what 
could be causing the other two to access the login prompts at a slower 
rate.  What I'm saying is it takes only a few seconds from when the 
user (NT-1) double-click on the icon to get the login prompt whereas on 
the other two workstations it takes upwards of 10 minutes.
