Hi, just a heads up for anyone upgrading to AVG9.
I recently upgraded my 8.5 installations (a mixture of XP and Windows 2000) to AVG9 SBS edition and wondered why my roaming profiles were loading yet not saving to the server on exit, generating event id 1504 and 1509 "access denied" in the event logs. I was even more bemused when I completely uninstalled AVG, thinking it was the firewall, and the problem remained. To cut an irritatingly long story short, I happened to stumble on this thread:
which basically says that the AVG installation can strip the NTUSER.dat (c:\Documents and settings\username\ntuser.dat) of the user permissions which then denies the ability to overwrite the server stored NTUSER.dat.
In my case, as soon as I put the correct username permissions on the local NTUSER.dat file it aterted uploading correctly!
Just had an email from AVG to say this is a bug that they are looking into.
This one's a bit of a bad one on Win 2k installations as I have first hand experience of what the aforementioned thread talks about, where it recreated a profile for one of my users so I had to manually redo all the settings!
Hopefully this might be usefulto someone!
