Roaming and local cached profiles


Recommended Posts

Posted

Has anyone seen this problem? I have Windows 2003 SP2 running on a few

servers in terminal services mode with a GPO policy to delete locally cached

profiles. The problem I am experiencing is that the user’s profiles are not

getting completely deleted. The index.dat file, cookies folder and local

settings folder remain on the servers. Now every time when users login they

get a new user profile folder with their name appended with a new number

(.001 )

 

What can I do to make sure the profiles get completely deleted?

 

Thanks,

 

Lenny

The only times I have seen this happen was due to either permission or

connectivity issues that needed to be solved.

Frankster,

 

Thanks for getting back. What in particular should I check for regarding

permissions?

Just make sure they have read/write/delete (usually full) file permissions

in their profile directory. Also that the share itself allows them full

permissions.
