When a user logs on for the first time the system the users logs on to wil
first look in the netlogon share for a default user profile and if it does not
find one it will use the default profile from the local computer the user logs
on to. If you don't want the users to change the profile (as in make it
mandatory) rename the NTUSER.DAT to NTUSER.MAN.
What you could do is:
* Create a folder named Default User in the netlogon share
* Configure a default user profile as you want it and place it in the Default
user folder on the netlogon share
* Rename the NTUSER.DAT to NTUSER.MAN if the user will not be allowed to change
the profile
* Configure each user with a profile directory in its AD user object

Do you want them each to get their 'own' profile (that they can change
and those changes would be there the next time they log on) or is it a
'standard' profile that needs to be the same for every user, every time
they log on?

What would be the easiest way to setup a default profile for a few
thousand users and make sure that their profile is deleted from their
local machines at logoff.
