If the users my documents don't physically reside under a specific share for
each user, then my suggestion probably won't work. I was going under the
assumption that the user's my documents directories were being
re-directed to their Home Directory. That's how it's configured in my
environment.

Iexplore.exe and explorer.exe are two different things.

For the record, iExplorer doesn't exist, don't want to make Bill G mad now.

RE: Citrix and redirected My Documents

[David Mazzaccaro]

If you just publish Windows Explorer, the user will have to navigate to "My 
Documents"... and it seems it will bring them correctly to 
\\server\share\%username as this is done via GPO.  It would be great if I could 
give them an icon that immediately gets them into "my documents".
