Along this same note ... I am pondering the implications of mapping certain parts of the profile (My Documents, maybe My Pictures) to a network drive. But I think this won't work for my truly roaming users (laptop users). Do any of you redirect the profile directories based on membership of, say, a 'laptop' group or some such thing? I know that I can write registry keys based on group membership with Kixtart. Or am I wrong and laptops won't have a problem with it? If a laptop user saves a file in "My Documents" they will expect to have access to the file even when offline. Thoughts? I would just like to know how you all generally handle it.
