Vista signs in with Temp account not a domain account

[Guest joe schmo]

I have a W2K3 DC server. Most machines are XP. Just testing Vista now. I

can log on fine with an admin account in the domain, but when I log on to

the Vista pc with a user domain account (roaming), it signs in with Temp and

no settings can be saved.

 

Is this a permission issue? Or does Vista look elsewhere for profiles? any

help is great thanks.

Hello joe,

 

If it use a temp account and you use roaming profiles stored on a server,

there will be a connection problem to the share where the user profiles are

stored. Check that the account is configured for the right profile share

and has the correct rights to it. Additional test from the run line with

\\yourserver\usershare if you can access it or if it is only possible with

\\ipaddress\usershare

 

Best regards
