Does anybody know if the Documents and Settings folder where Win2k stores its profiles can be moved? Preferably, I'd like to move it to another drive.
 
From Resource kit :
The profile location can be changed only at setup time in Windows 2000.
Some older applications use hard-coded paths for determining where a user's local (cached) profile is located on the local computer. When a user roams between computers running Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000, problems can occur if a program is hard-coded to find the user's locally cached profile in the %SystemRoot%\Profiles folder. If users roam between clients running Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 operating systems, set the profile path to be the same on both clients, to minimize the chance of problems.
