Check your event log on the desktop. The application log should have an entry under folder redirection and should have a reason. Most of the time it's incorrect permissions. The user needs to have permissions to create folders in your share - in this case \\server. What we've done is create a share \\server\share and given the group of users read access to the share and write access to the folder "share". I don't know how to get your folders created without giving the users extraordinary permissions on the servers - which you may not want to do. You may want to create a \\server\share$ and apply permissions to that share.

If I log on to another machine I get Desktop and Security folders on the desktop and the My Documents folder still points locally. If I look in the user folder on the server I can see a hidden My Documents folder which has some (but not all) of that user's local my documents. What's going on?
