Re: Administrator Profile corruption



It's an interesting thought, although I presume that any user account,
including this hypothetical admin account, would still be subject to
the Default Domain Policy and Default DC Policy assuming the User
portion has some settings defined.

something else I haven't got around to confirming is the effect on SBS of
deleting the admin profile but this set of circumstances would have me
creating another domain admin (directly in ADUC, no wiz) and using it to at
least move all 500 profiles, see if 500 signon then works normally.

I guess a better question would be, have you run RSoP against your
administrator logon to see which group policy objects are applied?

I see the same CMD dialog at every logon, both in Windows XP and in
SBS. If I think about it, client setup wizard probably runs on the
server, as well, though I couldn't begin to tell you what it does.

Where to you find the administrator account in Active Directory Users
and Computers?

Thanks for your reply Justin,

The answer to your question is no.

However maybe this is a clue: When I RDP into server login, i get the
error
"client setup Wizard..the system cannot copy a file from the server to
this
computer.
Make sure that network cable and devices are plugged in and functioning
properly and try again to join this computer to the network"

However this is the DC so it would not require the 'client setup
wizard' i
also know for a fact that it's not a network problem as I am coming in
over
the wan.

Also a cmd promt is running in the background with the following:

'C:\Documents and
Settings\administrator.clc.002>\\CLCHOMEPDC\Clients\Setup\setup
.exe /s CLCHOMEPDC'

I'm on administrator.clc.006 it just creates a new profile everytime
login.

I am begining to think it's not profile corruption, but a different
problem
maybe some script or policy.



Also under GPO Policy Events I'm getting EVENTID 1097 ' Windows cannot
find
the machine account, Not enough storage is available to process this
command.'

as well as EVENTID 1030 'Windows cannot query for the list of Group
Policy
objects. Check the event log for possible messages previously logged by
the
policy engine that describes the reason for this.'

Think I'm getting closer but need help on this one.

Does this domain use roaming profiles via Group Policy? If so, was
the
administrator account mistakenly included in the roaming profiles
group?

Hi I have a problem on 2003 SBS.

Everytime I login It creates a new profile name. eg: admin.001
.admin.002
admin.003 ect ect.

I realise that the original profile is corrupt however why does it
continue
to recreate a new profile evertime I login?

In the H_KEY LOCAL
MACHINE/Sotfware/Microsoft/Wondowsnt/currentversion/profilelist
I'm currently at administrator.005

Everytime I login it will replace the previous. How can I stop this
from
happening?


I have come across this problem before on XP but never on a DC.

It's on a production network so I have to get this right 1st time.

Please help if you know the solution.

Thanks Andre
