Need help with Windows NT client connectivity

I need some advice regarding Windows NT client connectivity. I have a Windows NT 4.0 (service pack 4) client machine that runs an app created in Delphi. The Delphi app uses the BDE/SQL Links to connect to the database. I have the ESQL/C cd v. 7.20.TD1 installed on the machine and I know when the connection to the database is made, there are dll's installed from this cd used in that connection process. We are using Informix Work Group Server v. 7.20 on a SCO UNIX machine. The version of SCO UNIX on the server is 3.2v5.0.4. The network in house is very basic. Approx. 200 machines on the network. The problem is when the client app launches and the connection to the informix database is attempted, it is extremely slow. On average it takes 5 minutes to get connected to the database. The problem is also exhibited when setnet is executed on the same client. When I run the same app on a Windows 95 or Windows 98 box, the connection takes seconds, it's extremely fast. The client computers are connected to the same hub on the network. I have used the same ESQL/C cd to install the necessary informix files on the Windows 95/98 clients. The same setup program was used to install the delphi app on all the boxes. So, how do I make the NT client connect as fast as the 95/98 clients? Thanks in advance.
