Here we use folder redirection for the users Desktop and "My Documents" folders, to redirect to a network share. All well and good. Now we've started to use RDS (using RemoteApp only, no full desktop). And I am seeing Event ID 502 in the event logs of the session host.
< http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2493506 > Failed to apply policy and redirect folder "Desktop" to "\\FileServer\users\example\Desktop". Redirection options=0x9000. The following error occurred: "Can't create folder "\\FileServer\users\example\Desktop"". Error details: "Access is denied. ". Now, the user "example" already has a redirected "Desktop" folder on "FileServer", so the above message makes perfect sense, I guess. But this means that the RDS server is creating profile directories for every user on it's local C: drive. What do I need to do to correct this? I guess that the server needs to have a profile structure of the user to create temp files, etc. But how do I tell the GPO not to try and redirect, if this is a virtual session? I'm assuming it has to do with those "Redirection options", but I haven't been able to find out what they mean, where I change them, and what I need to change them to ... Or is there some other to resolve this type of error on an RDS server?
