As Laura's email mentioned, there are a variety of methods
for controlling how much stuff is sent to the roaming profile share. Of all of
these methods, I would stay away from the profile quota feature. It can result
in some unexpected results for your users and just adds administrative\help
desk burden. If you really need to limit how much is being copied up, I
would use a combination of preventing certain un-needed profile folders from
roaming and Folder Redirection Policy to control where stuff like My Documents
is held. You could conceivably redirect My Documents to a different server from
where your profiles are held. This gives you some additional options around
storage management by spreading the load. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan DeStefano Sent: Thursday, March 17, 2005 9:30 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Roaming Profiles Sorry, I should mention
that the servers are all W2k and the clients are mostly WXPP (the others are
W2k). From:

On Behalf Of Dan
DeStefano I have a question about roaming
profiles: Is there a way to restrict the size of a profile? I could probably
create a new partition on a file server just for the roaming profiles and then
enable quotas, but I am looking for a more elegant solution. I vaguely remember
some way of limiting profile size through GPO or something, but I can’t seem to
remember how. _________________________ Daniel
