Roaming Profile still tries to load off network


Recommended Posts

Posted

Even when I am not on the network my roaming profile tries to load on my

laptop when I logon. I get the error:

 

"Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is

attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile

will not be copied to the server when you logoff. Possible causes of this

error include network problems or insufficient security rights. If this

problem persists, contact your network administrator. "

 

XP can't seem to detect that the computer is at some other location and

tries to load the roaming profile. Is there a way to stop it from trying to

load the profile when not on the domain?

Windows did detect that you are not on your network which is why you got

that message. Try logging in with the network cable unplugged.

Re: Roaming Profile still tries to load off network

 

That is not exactly how it is supposed to work. If it were you would see

laptop and remote workers going crazy. When you logon, the computer knows

that it is using cached credentials first, so it should not be trying to

load a roaming profile if it already knows it is working from the cache.

 

I have other units working properly. Just this one unit is giving me a

problem.

Re: Roaming Profile still tries to load off network

 

When you boot the computer during the boot sequence if it does not detect an

active network it will use cache credentials. If it detects any type of

active connection it will try to use that connection for domain

authentication.

Stop stalking me with your posts, it's illegal.

 

 

Do you really want to trust someone that was banned from posting

directly to Microsoft Usenet servers, someone that has posted links to

pornographic materials on HIS WEBSITE, who's website is in the MVP HOST

Block list, and who provides a tool for your use that will block access

to reputable anti-malware sites without telling you he's doing it?

 

And do you really want to trust someone that has had to change their

posting identity after being busted by MS as a fake MVP?

No, that is not what is supposed to happen. The computer boots and rather

quickly the computer can see if it is on a domain because the system tries

to authenticate the computer even before you logon. This is why you see

events that the computer can't find the domain controller in the event logs

even before you logon to the computer when you are off the domain. This is

also how the computer knows to used the cached credentials and does so very

quickly istead of sitting at the logon prompt for about a minute after you

enter your password.

 

As long as I am not super speedy and enter my password a millisecond after

the prompt is available the computer should already realize it is off the

domain, which it did and you can tell it did because it fell back to cached

credentials. Now since the computer already knows that I am off the domain

because it already failed a check for itself and fell back to using cached

credentials it should (and does for other computers I have) used the local

copy of the profile without trying to get it from the server.

 

Mine is not. Even if I turn off the wireless and disable the onboard NIC I

still get the same issue.

Check your profile folder in there is there a file called ntuser.dat or

ntuser.man? Check the other computers to compare them.

Re: Roaming Profile still tries to load off network

 

From what you are describing I can duplicate the issue and I see that type

of issue all the time. However, unplugging the network cable fixes it. Do

you have any drives mapped or any antivirus software that tries to update

during boot, firewall software, VPN anything like that on the troubled

system that is not on the others?
