These commands only work for the current window, which you've discovered. There is a resource kit utility for this called pathman.exe:

There is also a Terminal Services home folder location in the Active Directory User Properties, if you need a different home folder when users logon to a TS than their normal home folder.

     Hi, I have a W2KSP4 Terminal Server. I want to be able to change the
     default location of the home drive/path and temp path. I have tried putting
     the set commands in a login script and it doesn't work. I also put it in
     the startup folder with no success. It keeps showing the default. However,
     after I've logged in and run the set commands, it works just fine. How can
     I do this so that the changes are made during login?
     
     Thanks,
     STeven
