My brother gives me hell about it. 

It's a "pumping services" company, if you know what I mean.

(What? It's the oil and gas biz...)

glad it worked.
 
Do you get a lot of questions about the name of your company/email 
address?
 
just curious.

Thanks, Greg, that works.  I was hoping to grab it from a variable though 
since I presently have home directories residing on more than one file 
server.  We are going to be consolidating to a single box.  I may have to 
wait until then to implement this policy.   

Thanks,

Hello, List. 

There is probably something simple I am over looking here.  Trying to 
redirect the My Documents folder to users' home directories instead of the 
default location in their profile.  I have a GPO trying to enforce a 
policy to this end, but it the redirection keeps failing.  The event log 
says the redirect fails due to invalid path.  %homedrive%%homepath%,or 
%homeshare%%homepath%, or just specifying a drive letter (H:).  None of 
that is working.   

What have you done to get it working?  See anything obvious that I've 
missed? 

Thanks in advance,
