Well the roaming profiles are copied to the host machine when a user logson and back again when they log off. You can use policy to redirect some of the profile folders like my doc desktop and app data live on the server to make the profile significantly smaller.
Also enforcing deleting roaming profiles in policy will remove the profile at logoff too -----Original Message----- From: Evan Ingram <evan.ing...@cariss.co.uk> Sent: 12 May 2010 09:24 AM To: Damien Dye <damien.j....@googlemail.com> Cc: samba <samba@lists.samba.org> Subject: Re: [Samba] please wait for the user profile service...
