Hi list,
into my customer environment I need to setup a "one way" roaming
profile behavior, so the user (normally laptop) do some work outside
the office lan and, when return at office, login on the win2k3
domain without loading the server profile and, on logout, save all
the profile on the server. So I need a normal roaming profile
without the server -> client data loading. This can be figured like
an automatic backup of the desktop/document/etc... folders.

It's this possible?

Thanks,
Michele

Not possible that I know of.

Bad news...

What's the purpose of this?

"Automatic" backup, using roaming profile, where the client "only
send".

When a user work outside and return on office, I want that on login
the server doesn't send the (roaming) profile saved and on logout it
receive the good one present on the laptop.
Something like the "Delete cached copies of roaming profiles", but
perfectly the opposite, so on the server there are no data and the
client only send.
The better would be that it synchronize the profile on the client with
that on the server, so the client haven't to send the whole profile
every logout.

Thanks,
Michele

But it doesn't send the whole profile up or down, every time. The first time
someone logs into a PC, the profile is downloaded. when they log out, the
*changes* are uploaded.

And nothing should really be stored in the profile folders anyway. Use
folder redirection for Desktop & My Documents - use offline files or other
means (such as SecondCopy from www.centered.com) to sync data. Don't use
offline files for desktop users, though - set up a separate GPO for laptops.
