Windows 2003 SBS and Roaming Profiles

[AP0680]

Hello,
i am going crazy, I work at a company with 50 concurrent users max, and my boss is adament about Roaming profiles.
I wnat to make it so Roaming profiles only backups desktop, my docs, and windows profile ( not a requirement) , I ma having sync issues especialyl with some people having ITUNES installed ( i know I know).

IS this possible, secondly I wnat to slowly delete and recreate all profiles is that possible?

Do people in your office really roam?

I would first get a handle on the iTunes software. Let the boss know that to meet his request you need to reign in the image and get rid of the non-business software.

Be aware that MS Access databases freak out with folder replication. If you use access you WILL get errors. You will need to exclude the files to not get the errors.

I hope you find this post helpful.

well no one acutally roams, my predecesor put this in place so that people will be able to migrate, desktop settings and my docs to a new pc in case the old one crashed or gets lost.

Also how cna i say dont backup Access files?

Been a while since I did it but as I recall there was an option in the Offline Files dialog to set exclusions.
