Hello everyone
nw6.5sp5, zfd7, nw client 4.91sp2, zenworks management client.

I used to use DLU and the users desktop was saved on their server space (/profiles/nt) but since I upgraded from zfd3.2 to zfd7 it doesn´t seem to be working very well so I have started moving toward roaming profiles.
The problem is:
1. If I create a new user and login to a computer the roaming profiles works as it should, it copies from the server to the computer (to "Documents and settings/username") and the user can see his files which he has stored on the desktop.
2. If I log in with an existing user to his computer, his desktop is still mapped to /profiles/nt on his server space. The roaming profile will be copied to the local computer in "Documents and settings/username" but the files will not show on the users desktop.

I have tried removing the local user account from the computer, restarted the computer and then logged in again -> still showing profiles/nt on the users desktop.

I have tried uninstalling the nw client and zenworks client, and then reinstalling them again -> still not working.

I have been searching novells site but not found any solution yet.

How can I get this to work, has anyone had this problem before ?
