You can do it by editing the registry with a login script that you use
GPO to launch.  As for a strictly GUI way to do it, I have not seen one.
The only options you have are the 4 listed in the policy.  This may not
be off much help to you but we use a program called ScriptLogic which
handles folder redirection for anything you want to put in.  It is based
on Kix which I know some think is an outdated language but it works for
what we need. It validates against all Microsoft OS'es.

Subject: [THIN] OT: GPO Folder Redirection

Hi all,

Having only used system policy previously, I'm trying to get my head
around group policy on a new 2003 machine we are implementing.

On our (soon to be) old NT4 domain users running NT4 w/ MF 1.8 had a
custom shared desktop and shared programs folder via system policy. I am
trying to implement exactly the same through folder redirection in the
GPO on our new
2003 machines, but I can only redirect the desktop and there is no
option for programs only start menu.

I know I can achieve this by editing the all users profile in the doc's
& settings folder to what I require, but I'm sure there must a way of
doing through the GPO.

Any ideas?

Rgds,

Jon.......
