I am looking for an opensource alternative to Forensit's User Profile manager, or another commercial one I found was Zap (which at the moment is only windows XP).
In windows every user who logs in gets a cached local profile made for them. Microsoft has some overcomplicated methods for managing this, but I don't like them. I am just trying to make it so that every user who logs into the windows machine uses the same user profile. I have been looking for this feature for a while now. I have almost come to the conclusion that there is not an opensoruce version written yet. -bj On Tue, Jul 20, 2010 at 11:07 PM, Anthony Carrico <[email protected]>wrote: > On 07/20/2010 08:52 AM, Bjorn Behrendt wrote: > > I just found Forensit's User Profile Manager.
