Sorry, I've been juggling several projects at one time. I set folder
redirection for My Documents to Advanced and set up a group that I put my
test user in. My Pictures is still grayed out. Any other ideas?

My Pictures option is not available under Basic Redirection - you have to use
Advanced

I am trying to set up network based home directories and am running into an
issue with folder redirection. I need to redirect My Documents, but because
of limited server space, I need to exclude things that are not critical
(personal music, pictures and videos). I've redirected My Documents using
Group Policy and using the Basic setting. This works fine, but under the
settings tab, the My Pictures Preferences section is grayed out. I've
created a custom Admin template to redirect My Music, My Videos and My
Pictures, but the event log shows that My Pictures have been redirected back
to the network location. I've tried every combination of settings that I can
think of to make the My Pictures preferences section active, but nothing
works. Please help me resolve this issue.

Thank you,
