New computer, several domain users, profile problems

[Guest jude@womenshealthspecialists.org]

I have successfully set up new domain users and their computer on the

domain. I have 6 users in ADUC, and have not added them as local users

on the computer. I added one user, not as local user, but as domain

user. I logged on as local machine administrator, and installed

software. I copied the local machine administrator's account to the

other domain user. When I logged on as the domain user, I did not have

access to software and settings. When setting up several users on the

local machine do you have to put them on as local users first? This

means maybe 2 profiles per person and many profiles. I would love to

have some advice!

move the administrator profile to the Default User profile (if no

other users profiles currently exist) or the All Users profile (if

other users profiles exist) and be sure to set the security settings

on the folder correctly so that new users can access the profile.

I added one user to the local machine, and all users to ADUC (I used

copy to command on local computer under system, advanced, profiles).

Is your suggestion to create a base profice for the local users also

known as mandatory profiles? Should I be doing this in a W2k3

environment? Thanks!

Won't I still have multiple profiles on one local machine? I am trying

to avoid this because these users change frequently. Or if they are

are under all users, will that not create mutiple user profiles on the

local machine because they are point to the All Users profile? Thanks!

Re: New computer, several domain users, profile problems

 

What i proprosed is to create a default profile with all the settings needed

 

If your users move alot, you may use GPO to remove their local profile at

logoff (they would have a roaming profile not to loose their settings)
