Roaming Profiles with 2000TS

[clandouglas]

Hi All,

I am setting the field in Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Terminal Services -> Set Path for TS Roaming Profiles to a network share I have created. I have set the root folder share and ntfs permissions the same as I have for regular roaming profiles.
Does the server not create subfolders automatically for each new user that logs on?
I don't seem to get error messages and EventLog looks clean but the profile is always created locally.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm fairly sure you need to include a variable for %username% in the path you specify in order to get subfolders, and of course it will need to be a UNC, not using any kind of mapped drive since the profile is connected before any logon script runs.
For existing users you could also use the tsprof command to set this in the first place. See here for more info on that:
