A network account take a long tme to be loged into the network

Question

I still have the same problem but I got a new information:
I have a Mac Pro OS X 10.6.2 Server with several network accounts.
My boss does not want to use Mobility (from Workgroup manager -> Preferences)
I also have 6 iMacs 10.6.2 and about 9 users, in my group.
All of the users have an account on the server.
I also have a model called Master, from which I create a clone with CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) and I installed all iMac with that clone.
Apparentely somme users are complaining that it take a while to log in to the server.
But it does not happen often.
Today some one reported me that it happens when some one has be loged with the iMac and another user came to the same iMac in order to be loged. At this time it take a while.
One of the user, told me, he always restart the iMac when he use the iMac after someone else.
From my Mister, I tried to be logged with different user, but I could not reproduce the problem.
Some one can help me to find the reason while, it take a while to be log into the server?
If you need more information, let me know?
Pierre

Thank for your reply.
I did see anythink special.
But did I look from the right place?
I look from:
Server Admin -> Open Directory
Then I displayed "password service error"
I also looked in " LDAP Log" and I saw somethink special:

The think which seams to be special are:
1) untitled_1
2) Nov 17 15:07:32 lmommac18 slapd[50]: connection_read(54): no connection!
3) Nov 24 11:18:47 lmommac18 slapd[49]: connection_input: conn=2407 deferring operation: too many executing
4) Nov 24 14:23:23 lmommac18 slapd[64]: bdb(dc=lmommac18,dc=xxxx,dc=cc): unable to join the environment
Do you have an idea which can help me o undertand the reason?
Many thank
