All,

I am using application folder redirect in a particular OU that is working
great. The users are roaming, and Desktop and My Documents are redirected as
well. These redirects are to specific folders and not to the same place the
profile is roaming from.

Here is the question

In the same OU as the folder direct, there is the Policy: Internet Explorer
Maintenance. It like folder redirect is under user configuration.

With Folder redirect (application) enabled, any changes I make to the IEM
Policy does not get applied. However with redirect "off" it (IEM) works
great. Things like bowser title or Important URL. (Which I set to the
company home page).

I have tried adding new OU thinkiong I need to redirect first then try to
modify IEM ... No Go.

Note: Any security settings for IE policy changes (say Windows components,
Internet explorer) apply great.

Something is off here. Has anyone experienced this, or if not try it....
