If encryption is allowed on a folder in a user's redirected My
Documents folder, and there is no CA in the domain, there isn't, am I
correct in saying the public key pair is being generated by the
Terminal Server? If so, is the private key being stored in the
user's profile?

Woud the user be able to decrypt their data if :
-there is no key recovery agent and their profile becomes corrupt?
-the server which generates the key pair is destroyed?


Should I just tell my boss to drop the encryption option for this
project? ;) ??

Possibly, but I'm not an EFS expert by any means. You might try in an AD
group as terminal services isn't really going to be related here. Be vewy
vewy careful with EFS, or any encryption stuff, of course.


Thanks, big time, in advance,

Hi, what in your opinion is the most reliable automated way to store
terminal server user profile contents on a remote file server with
all machines in a 2K3 functional level forest? I am working to
capture 100% of the profile's contents.

.Roaming Profile?
.Folder Redirection via GPO policies?
.Scripting?
.Other??

Thanks

A TS profile path in the user's ADUC properties that points to
another server (e.g., \\fileserver\tsprofiles$\%username%) combined
with folder redirection for My Documents (and possibly also
Application Data and Desktop) to the users' home directories (e.g.,
\\fileserver\users\%username%\mydocuments etc) would work. That's
all they really need.
