Hi,

Is there a way to force a W2003 server to create a new folder whenever a new user is created?

For example when admin creates new user Fred, I want a
%HOMEPATH%\ABC folder created ie.

C:\Documents and Settings\Fred\ABC

thanks
Rob
 
Usually when you use Active Directory Users and Computers, you can go into a user's properties and select the Profile tab. From there under Home Folder define the path to the users home folder.
 
You might want to consider using redirected My Documents via Group Policy instead of Home directories. Once set up the directories are created when the user logs in.
