It's a setting in the GPO. It simply adds permissions, it wont remove existing permissions if the folder exists. Haven't looked to see if it doesn't affect parent permissions that apply to child objects when the folder doesn't exist initially, but I would assume it doesn't. May have to test that one (our provisioning creates the user folder(s) so I have not run into it yet).

When you say exclusive do you mean full control, or are they the only ones that have access? ________________________________ From: James Rankin [mailto:kz2...@googlemail.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2009 10:50 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Mandatory profiles? Are your profile areas set to give the user exclusive access? I found problems with GPO application from 2008 AD till I overrode that setting 2009/6/17 Owens, Michael <michael.ow...@dys.ohio.gov> Actually no one from XP will be logging on to it, only Server 2008. I just tried the XP because I was out of ideas. I took what I learned from you guys, applied it, and now the profiles are working flawlessly. But here is what is wierd. If the profile takes, the group policies do not apply. If I remove the users access to the profile (something I would thinl would be completely unrelated to GPO) the group policy doesnt apply? I've tinkered with it for the last few days and can't put my finger on it. Also, in the v2 profile there is no ntuser.dat? there is an ntuser.dat.log. is this correct? ________________________________ From: Kelsey, John [mailto:jckel...@drmc.org] Sent: Monday, June 15, 2009 1:28 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Mandatory profiles? Vista profiles are stored in a completely different folder structure than XP. If you need to use the same profile on both XP and Vista, the 'recommended' way is with folder redirection in a GPO.

I see. We are having an issue where event viewer says that it cannot gain access to the profiles, but it works on an XP machine.... and I can navigate to it. Very strange. ________________________________ From: Bob Fronk [mailto:b...@btrfronk.com] Sent: Monday, June 15, 2009 12:30 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Mandatory profiles?
