After I stopped the roaming profiles in the registry. I found out that the only way to copy the Profile folder inside to the server from a batch or kixtart-file is:
xcopy %USERPROFILE%\* /Y/H/R/C/E S:\mydomainfolder IF I used xcopy C:\Users\myname just nothing happened, but file could not be found Strange in Windows 7!!?? ----------------------------------------------- EDV Daniel Müller Leitung EDV Tropenklinik Paul-Lechler-Krankenhaus Paul-Lechler-Str. 24 72076 Tübingen Tel.: 07071/206-463, Fax: 07071/206-499 eMail: muel...@tropenklinik.de Internet: www.tropenklinik.de ----------------------------------------------- -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: samba-boun...@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-boun...@lists.samba.org] Im Auftrag von Abe Lau Gesendet: Freitag, 27.

Following the thread, and German's previous suggestion of KiXtart, I came up with using the following KiXtart script to set the registry key with logon script. ------------------------------------------------------------ ; Disable Roaming Profiles ; Key doesn't seems to exist, create if necessary IF NOT KeyExist("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System") AddKey("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System") ENDIF WriteValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System", "LocalProfile", "1", "REG_DWORD") WriteValue("HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System", "ReadOnlyProfile", "1", "REG_DWORD") ------------------------------------------------------------ However, I cannot find the key being created under HKLM\Software, nor HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node I am not sure if it is related to 64-bit Windows 7, or if it is a registry write permission issue, or a KiXtart issue. Any idea how I may target it?
