If you are not using roaming profiles from the server, then each staff / student who logs into a computer will get a newly created profile on the local machine, unless they have one from before. This can take up quite a bit of hard drive space over time. When someone logs into a computer, the first check is for a server (roaming) profile, then second is the local computer, and then finally one is created locally if needed.

We are running Windows XP SP3 and the servers are server 2003. I aren't using roaming profiles so I'm not sure if it is not suppose to update. Just a question. If you have any information of what might be going on please let me know asap. Thanks Mitch Mueller Emmetsburg CSD
