Outlook and Roaming Profiles!

[ciscogeek]

Could someone explain to me how to setup Exchange Server to centralize everyones pst, pab files in one location and when the user logs onto any machine in our hospital their profile is automaticaly set with all the right configurations for outlook. I'm trying to automate our facility because we don't have enough personel to run around the building configuring everyone on all the machines.

Thanks.

There is a utility offered by MS called profgen that is supposed to help you do this via logon scripts. I haven't actually used it, but I ran across it a year or so ago. I found it somewhere on MS site.

I Newprof and profgen - are they on the Office CD or in the Office Development Kit (ODK)?
There is quite a lot of info on Microsoft TechNet.
Try an article called "Automate Outlook Profile Creation"

This has procedures and sample files etc.
