AFAIK-
The profile is usually C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\NTUSER.DAT

With roaming profiles, you identify the location of this file with various [NETLOGON] and [GLOBAL] settings. It is copied into the C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\NTUSER.DAT on login and copied back to the server location on logout. Everything else can be redirected.

Profiles can be shared between NT and Win2K. I don't know about XP. If you have users who move between different architectures, you can use the %a variable to identify the OS and select the appropriate profile to load.

I hope that is close.

Adrian told me on 12/14/2005 00:23:
What exactly comprises a profile? Do they have anything more than the
contents of a user's "Documents and Settings" directory?

To what extent is profile data shared between Windows OSes?

Thanks.
