Re: Roaming Profile problem

Well... Unless you're playing with Restricted groups policy or any other scripts, generally Domain Admins are members of local Administrators in all machines in the domain check that.

I think you may be on track because I just setup the new file server that I want to use as a member to hold the profiles did not have the domain admin in the root folder.
I did log on as the domain administrator not the local admin.

Hi
Generally that behavior happens when the following is true:
- You're not Administrator
- You don't have permissions over the folder (you can take ownership of the folder and replace permissions).
- You're logged on with the account that refer to the profile to be copied.

I'm trying to implement roaming profiles for students that signon to lab PC's.
I did the following:
1. created a test student in AD on serverA
2. assigned the profile path to \\serverB\roamingProfiles\%username%
3. setup the shared path on serverB for roamingProfiles with student group with full access rights
4. Logged on as test student
5. logged off
6. Logged on same workstation as administrator
7. selected system and advanced to try to copy user profile to serverB

Problem : when I select the test student it does not present me with the option to copy
it comes up with the local radio checked.

What am I doing wrong? Did I miss a step?
