Re: Default Domain User Profile

You realize that you have to set these settings up on every workstation that
you want this action to occur. So if you have 20 workstations you have to
go to all 20 and set this up.

I've followed the instructions from
http://www.windowsitpro.com/Article/ArticleID/47534/47534.html

However everytime I logon a pc with a user who doesn't have a profile none
of the settings I made in the profile are there so I am led to believe
it's
not working. Does anyone have instructions for setting up a default
domain
profile that work or can someone tell me what I did wrong?

I created domain user, logged on the pc as him, customized the profile,
logged off. logged on as domain admin, copied profile to
//domaincontroler/netlogon/Default Profile

and set permission to use by everyone.
