Re: My Documents redirections

As far as I know, Folder Redirection using the Windows 2003 Group Policy,
will not work for WinNT 4.0 and Win9x clients.

Users My Documents Target Location
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs/browse_thread/thread/a8b13c60ba8376cf/d8e6042a77ab012e?lnk=st&q=folder+redirection+windows+98&rnum=21&hl=en#d8e6042a77ab012e

However, you may be able to use 'poledit' on the Windows 98 workstrations to
create a config.pol that can be copied to the Netlogon share on the domain
controller.

Summary group policies

----------------------
Down level clients
Windows 95/98/ME/NT 4.0 clients do not use Windows 2000 group policies. Use
the system policy editor (poledit.exe) to a create ntconfig.pol file for NT
4.0 clients. For Windows 95/98 clients you can use poledit.exe on the local
computer to create config.pol files. These pol-files should be placed into
the Sysvol folders on the domain controllers. (netlogon-share)

Keep in mind that when a Windows 2000 client is validated by a NT 4.0 domain
controller, system policies are applied. If the same client connects to a
Windows 2000 domain controller, group policies are applied.

The resource-kit utility gpolmig.exe can be used to import NT 4.0 system
policies into a Windows 2000 group policy. You can also use the Windows 2000
version of the system policy editor (poledit.exe) to transfer system
policies (.adm-files) into Windows 2000 group policies.

Also, under the section called Folder Redirection on the following web page,
the author gives a way to handle folder redirection by creating an .adm
template:

Of course, the best solution is to upgrade your clients to Windows XP Pro.
