If you redirect the desktop to a readonly share, what happens when you push out software like office to users through GPO and want to have the icons auto appear on the desktop? Will you end up with 100's of icons?

What I've done in the past is just set up folder redirection of Desktop to a read-only share. That usually does the trick without having to manage individual permissions on each profile.
