Is there any way that i can set up Os X 10.3.3 (Panther) So that it stores the users profile on a windows 2000 server. I have managed to get the Mac to join our AD Domain and it mounts the homedrive specified in AD but it still has a local home drive where all user settings are stored and when the user logs out the profile is not copied up to the server. I really need this as users change machines they log in to and need their settings setup the same across all macs.

Any info would be really appreciated!
 
How did you get it on the domain? That issue appears in this forum so often that your way of doing it may work for some of the members that didnt get anything else to work. Would be grateful if you would post it.
 
if you automount the server, edit the user entry in netinfo manager and set the home to /myserver/username
