Good day, all. I'm having a problem with some TS Roaming Profiles.
ha ha bet you've never heard that before !!

Some of the users are logging on and getting the default profile -
prompt for Office User Info, Outlook config, etc even though their TS
Roaming Profile is set up fine - path is good, permissions are fine,
etc.

What I have found is that when this happens, under User Profiles, the
user is listed with a profile of Type Roaming, Status Local. I
even go and check the same user on another server and their Profile
is Roaming, Roaming, which is fine (user was not prompted for profile
info). A number of the Roaming, Local profiles are for users that
have been on and logged off, but some are for active users. There
isn't anything in the Event Logs showing there was a profile load
issue.

Now I can't even find an explanation as to what this means. Toss up
a google search for Roaming Profile Type Roaming Status Local I get
very few hits, and some of them are for ExpertSexChange which is now
pay for access. All the other sites don't have an explanation.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find out a) what this
means b) why it's happening and c) how to prevent it ?

We're running Win2003SP2 and Citrix PS4.0.

Thanks alot. JC

Got the User Profile Hive Cleanup service installed?
Using folder redirection?
