Hi all,
I have a remote site which is connected to our main office via a 1mbit link. We have installed a domain controller down at that site to allow for faster logins.
Each user on our network is a roaming user and in Active Directory and Users we have set up the profile path for them. However, we have a significant proportion of users who are based at the remote site and they frequently come to the main office to login. This works fine except that if there profile is on the remote site, it takes ages for them to login while their profile is downloaded. This also happens for users who's accounts are based at the main office and they try to login at the remote office.
Is there a way where we can set a profile path on both remote and main site and when they login, the machine detects the nearest server and downloads the profile from there?
Thanks
