Create a so called mandatory profile: Copy you "perfect" user profile into a new directory (of course in the "profiles" path) with the name 'users.man' and rename the 'ntuser.dat' to 'ntuser.man'. And of course you have to change the smb.conf like 'logon path = \\%L\profiles\users.man'
Now the users CAN configure the desktop and everything but it will not be saved! It's working perfectly for me (up to now at least :-)) Beware though: I don't know what happens with the "My Documents" Folder, so I would let it point into the 'real' users home directory. In Windows I've created the profile it should look like, pointed the Outlook-file and the home-dir. to the users path (i.e. 'z:'), copied this profile onto the server and now hopefully all important data will be stored, except the profile. cheers Markus > -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- > Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im > Auftrag von Derrick Seymour > Gesendet: Montag, 08.
