And when you move on your profile will still be on all new VMs until they refresh the template (and someone happens to discover this and clean it up). I don't mean to be negative but IMO this is pretty silly and frankly I'd be less than pleased if I was a manager here.
Do your management tasks from your local workstation and you can have it however you want. :) Thanks, Brian Desmond br...@briandesmond.com c - 312.731.3132 From: James Rankin [mailto:kz2...@googlemail.com] Sent: Thursday, October 07, 2010 4:51 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Classic Shell on R2? What I cunningly did was logged my user account onto the template we use for all of our 2008 R2 servers and customised my local profile exactly how I wanted it. Whenever a new server is deployed through VMWare, it already has my profile loaded and working the way I like it :-) If you're not a VMWare shop, though, you may have to find another method to do this On 7 October 2010 15:39, Don Guyer <don.gu...@prufoxroach.com<mailto:don.gu...@prufoxroach.com>> wrote: Thx James!
