Re: Default Administrator account as roaming profile?



My instant reaction was "What's AD?", but from a combination of another forum
discussion and the help file I'm guessing yo're referring to Active Directory?

I certainly don't have roaming profiles at the moment as I have no server,
but am on the verge of getting one. I've been studying about Group Policy but
need to familiarise myself more with the setting up of OUs, domain and Active
Directory. Plus, of course, my original question. If you can help that'd be
great!

Is it possible for the default Administrator account to be set as a
roaming profile on a home server? With multiple PCs on a home network
(each with its default Administrator account), I would obviously want
all of those to become one roaming account and want to know if it's
possible; and if so, how to 'merge' the accounts when changing to
roaming profile - and how this is safely processed.

If you don't use AD, there are no roaming profiles possible.
