Loopback processing will fit the bill. Put the TS in it's own OU and then configure
loopback processing under computer configuration via a GPO for that OU. Then
configure the user configuration as you want for that GPO also. You will have to
choose between merge and replace mode. See the KB below for details. --- Steve
