What do you mean everytime? Redirecting my documents and desktop will clear alot of your size. Only one profile per user is created on a server. If you have multiples, then you have a problem.

So even if we redirect their folders, the Docs and Settings must remain? So every time a new user starts, more space will be taken up?

Has anyone tried to cut down on the sizes of the profiles by using
folder redirection?

We have a customer with two W2003 terminal servers, with 12GB C: drives.
This is where the Documents and Settings folder is. No surprises the C:
drives have run out of space. Lots of space on the D:. I know we can't
simply move the folder but don't know how to fix.

What do we do to resolve?

Thanks, Neal
