    Access to home folder

    We are using Server 2008 Standard with users home directory mapped in their profile as their "S" drive and \\Fileserver\Profiles$\%username% in their profile settings for that drive. This is working on most of the computers in our schools lab but not with all and is becoming quite annoying. When...

    Sorry it took so long. I was testing a few things out. I believe that getting rid of the roaming profiles did the trick. So far, so good. They now have a local profile and don't seem to have any issues, yet! I have also done as suggested and created a data store on a different server which...

    No I do not have that in the policy. Perhaps I shouldn't have roaming profiles? I think about when then go for the summer and are unable to log in to the network here at school. I would create a local user for them but I need the restrictions I have in place for them. thanks

    laptop login

    Sorry it took me a while but I had to test this out with a few teachers. I have the data directory changed and the offline file caching changed in group policy. I have one teacher that is giving me information when I make changes but when he logs in at home, he always seems to get logged in...

    OK so, I have checked the share and it is as you suggest. It says that "All files and programs that users open from the share will be automatically available offline". This is on the profile share which is also where their documents are stored. I will be creating a share for the users in a...

    In AD, the profile path is: \\server\Profiles\username The home folder path is: \\server\Profiles\username Is this where you are talking about? If not, please let me know where. I was told to have a policy and set the interactive logons under local Policies in the computer configuration to at...

    laptop login

    That's the problem though. For some reason, that isn't happening. They would save in the document section and when they were home they couldn't log in. After I began saving the cached accounts to their laptops, at least then they could log in. One of the teachers (must have run out of the cached...

    laptop login

    I have a network setup on a 2003 server. Clients are XP and Windows 7. The policies are going well and most are working. With accounts for the local network on desktop machines I don't seem to have an issue. We are now implementing laptops for teacher use. They need to be able to bring the...

    DNAT question

    This may sound totally dumb but please forgive me. I am using Shorewall firewall for our network and I do not understand what difference it would make to route traffic from 1 port to another through the firewall. For instance, if traffic coming through port 80 were to be diverted to port 8080...

    GPO partially applying

    Sorry markdmac for the misspelling on my thank you. I was too fast. Thanks again.

    GPO partially applying

    Thanks Marcdmac for the command to look at other policies being applied. There was one that had restricted the use of the one I was attempting to place. I guess two people administering policies without notifying each other of what they were doing does create problems. Thanks again.

    GPO partially applying

    I have a situation where a group policy is only partially being applied. I am trying to have the proxy settings pushed out to XP Clients no matter who logs on. I have placed the proxy settings in the UserConfig/Windows Settings/Internet Explorer Maintenance/Connection/Proxy Settings. I have...

    Problem saving word document

    Thank you all for your responses. Sorry I haven't been around since then to reply. This is a recurring problem with ONLY 1 of the Teachers. Even when they have created a NEW document, save it, and then reopen it and make a change then they SAVE it again and get that message. This happens EVERY...

    Email delay question

    We have a Mac OSX 10.3.9 server which we use for our email server. This usually works just fine but occasionally, a teacher within the school network will email another teacher one morning and the recipient will not receive it until the following morning (morning isn't the issue, just the...

    Problem saving word document

    Thanks for your response. This problem just started occurring for two people. About two months ago it happened to someone else and it was resolved by deleting and then creating a new account for her on the network. I have tried that approach to these two people but it has not worked. The...

    Problem saving word document

    When in Word, whether a new document or previously saved document, when I click save Word tells me that it cannot save because it is open elsewhere. Unless Word is creating a duplicate document each time it is not open elsewhere. I have opened a saved document, change a couple words and then...

    ISA Snap in failure

    Hi all I am running a Windows 2000 server and have just recently moved the information from one hard drive to a larger one. I have most things running properly but have a problem with ISA. I believe that ISA is running and working but I cannot view the snap in. The reason that I think it is...
