RE: sbs2003 PDC and the BDC's, roaming profiles, w2kpro, log on



Hello Brian,

Thank you for posting back!

I understand that this issue occurs on a Windows 2000 Professional client
workstation. In this case, could you ask the problematic client to log in a
good client workstation, and will this issue occur?

If the issue cannot be produced on the good client workstation, then it
should be a client workstation issue.

If the issue can be produced on any computer, then this should be a user
profile issue.

Also, please help me to gather following information for research:

1. In your previous reply, you replied as "error copying
profile........, creating backup, your settings will not be save, contant
your administrator". I am sorry but I am still not clear what exact error
message you have encountered. Please type the error message word by word to
the Newsgroup for accurate research.

2. On the problematic client workstation, run "eventvwr" (without
quotation marks), right click Application, select "Save Log File As".
Please save as .evt file and send it to my mailbox.

3. If you ask the problematic client to log on another good client
workstation, will this issue occur?

4. Please go to the %SystemRoot%\Debug\UserMode\ and rename the
userenv.log, and help me to gather the latest userenv.log again.

Please make sure that you have input the correct DataValue for registry
key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

Value: UserEnvDebugLevel
Value Type: REG_DWORD
Value Data: 10002 (Hex)

After you make this change, reproduce this problem after rebooting this
workstation. The log file is written to the
%SystemRoot%\Debug\UserMode\Userenv.log file.

Windows

Our sbs2003 is the PDC; there a three w2k servers are BDC.
Lately the operators with roaming profiles do not get their profile at log
on, workstation does not matter, they are all w2kpro, but if they log off
and
then log on a second time, they get their profile loaded. Can it be that
the
BDC's are the issue when users are not getting their profiles? Can it be
made
so that users ONLY LOG ON to the sbs2003 and not the BDCs?
