Roaming Users Local Profile



Hello All,

I am having issues with some XP Pro computers on a network with SBS 2003
Premium. The problem is that when I set up a user on the domain, they are
able to log onto the laptop assigned to them but as soon as they log out or
restart all their settings are gone and the process starts over again. All
settings including VPN, shared folders, desktop and my document contents, etc
are wiped out and the user has to go through the first time logon again as
though he/she had never logged on before. In other words, no local user
profile is retained/maintained by the computer for the users for some reason.
This happens even though I have given them local admin rights on their laptop.

Any ideas on what could be the problem here?

Thanx.
.
