Fedora:Takes long time to boot in GUI

The Scenario was that a Fedora machine was taking long time to boot into GUI,but it logs into Terminal very fast
STEP 1:
Try checking the logs from,
cat /var/log/messages
It will show the reason,in my case it was showing fails to authenticate to LDAP
STEP 2:
Go into authentication configuration,by typing the follwing command,
[root@localhost]#setup
Then go to "Authentication Configuration"
Disable all the unwanted authentications like NIS,LDAP etc according to your use

Now it should work fine...
