If I remember right using the SBS 2003 Create a new template allows you to do this. Haven't had to create a new user for some time but I would use the template account and it would create the user and allow them to have that roaming profile.

Aha - but NOT if you use SBS and use the user template in the create a new user wizard it doesnt! Sorry though - my bad, should have stated its SBS.

There *must* be an easier way.
