Folder Redirection Problem

I want to set up our users to have their documents folders actually reside on the server, and just have the client machines read from the server. I have group policy set up to redirect the folder to \\serveii\roam\docs\%user%

However, the first user who logs in, it works for. All others then just get a documents folder created on the machine they are using. Shouldn't the %user% tell the server to make a new folder for each login name? It doesn't - it creates a "%user% folder, and I assume creates permissions that don't allow other users to have this system work.

Any help would be great!!
 
Well don't I feel silly... thanks, benlu!
