Divert Remote App My Documents on the Local C: Drive

[Guest Ian Watson]

I am trying to find an way to configure the "My Documents" to be directed to

the users local "C:\documents and settings\%username%\My Documents". This is

to happen only when the user is connecting to TS 2008 Remote Applications. I

want to facilitate the following scenario :

 

1. user is in office, my docs are redirected to server and offline copy

syncs when they leave

2. user gets home and fires up laptop, my docs is now working offline and

when the user loads up a remote app and clicks save within the TS remote app

they can choose the "My documents" and it will be going to the local C: Drive

offline my docs.

 

Any help appreciated!

Re: Divert Remote App My Documents on the Local C: Drive

 

There is no easy way to do this since when you use RemoteApp, the app is

actually running on the remote machine.

 

One option might be to use a roaming profile. Since you want to access the

doc when you go home (out of the network), you might have to create the

profile share on your local machine.
