Setting up Roaming Profiles in XP

[jshepherd]

I need to set-up some roaming profiles for users within our small Call Centre environment. I used to have some walk-through guides from Microsoft but I can't find them. Does anyone have a link for any useful walk-through guides as I can't seem to find any on the internet!

Hi,

Thanks, but I found that one earlier and one similar but I'm still having problems. Some of the profile data is staying locally on the PC, which is fine as it's things like Temporary Internet files etc. which you don't really want on the Server, but I can't get certain settings to transfer such as Desktop Images etc..

Yeah I had some problems with that. Its all to do with the Intellimirror stuff I think.
Have you checked the bits in here

Perhaps some PCs are still using the local profile. I'm afraid I never really solved my issues. Some users are still getting weird profiles from time to time. The Intellimirror does a comparison of the local profile (if it has one for that user) and the profile on the server and only transfers the newest files to save on network traffic. Maybe thats part of the problem.

Sorry I can't be more help - bit of a novice myself
