Redirecting users

[Guest Chris Wilkinson]

Hi,

 

I'm not sure if if this is the right forum but here goes. I have a problem

in that I have a load of Word documents with attached templates that are on a

now defunct server. The problem is that Word now hangs for a long time

looking for its template on non-existent server(it has been moved to a new

server). Further investigation showed that this location is hardcoded in the

Word document. A guy called Terry Farrell on the Word discussion group said

that the only solution is to use the Windows Server Redirect command to

redirect any requests for templates on the dead server to the new location.

Can anyone tell me how to do this? Also, where would any code go? in a login

script?

 

Any help would be much appreciated as this is causing a real problem for my

users,

Thanks,

Chris

Try re-directing the templates through the AD group policy. There may

be some setting for re-directing the user and workgroup template.
