It seems to be specific to an individual workstation (or in this case, a number of them). In this environment it is generally one user to one workstation so you are right, they don't travel much. However: - On one such XP workstation I tried logging in a newly created user and on log out no profile was stored to the server. I just tested this to be sure. - In the past, when we have reloaded the workstation from scratch profile operations start working from that point forward without modification to the user. We saw this behavior as recently as last week. One user's station needed to be reloaded, profiles had never worked for them before, and once the reload was done the first logout successfully stored the profile. Thanks, Sean
