Hi ppl,

we're facing a problem with big profiles.

some of our users need to use a lot of internet...

one of our problem's is the temporary internet files are stored in \documents and settings\%Username%\local settings\temp (don't know the correct sintax but i think you understand)

to reduce the profiles we cleand up internet files.

and we also redefine temp and tmp variables as C:\tempvar\temp and c:\tempvar\tmp

we do not have problems until the user loged in , in another pc that do not have c:\tempvar directory...

what is the best strategy to follow :
- define in AD. group policy or in some other place a task to clean up temp internet files and temp files.

- define in logon.bat the creation of the folder c:\tempvar


Point me a way pealse... i've been reading something about folder redirection but it doesn't say anthing i want...


thanks ;)
